Anti gravity weird idea

+0
−0

I'm not a smart guy, can't find an answer to a question:

Everything I see involves a large construct spinning at a slow speed to create gravity. Instead of something large could you not use a, let's say 2 ton, mass centered in a object and increase the speed to increase the gravity effects to an acceptable level? So a 2 ton weight sphere at 500rpm to generate the same field of gravity as a larger object at a slower spin?

Would that not eliminate the spin sickness that everyone talks about? and as the object increase in size you just spin the heavy object in the middle faster to increase the gravity.

It might be a dumb idea, if so sorry. It's just a weird stuff that pops in my head sometimes and I'm not a math guy so don't know if this would work or not.
