    Spinning is definitely a close cousin to gravity but objects in a spinning reference frame don’t fall straight down. Whereas water poured on earth will fall straight down towards the gravitational center, water in a spinning gravitational reference frame will arc. So, definitely close, but not a one to one approximation.

      You just have to make the spinny thing bigger!
