Hi Keith, I am new to throwing Yomega. It has been a change coming from the fixed axle world. I sought out advice from a few players and have something that works for me. I am using Fireballs with a 181 Raider axle and black spacers. The black plastic spacers are sanded down to shorten the gap. The gap width is 4 standard business cards stacked together (moves easy into the gap) if you add a 5th business card it is pretty snug. Then the Fireball transaxle is swapped with a Raider bearing. The Raider 181 axles and spacers are from sources overseas. There aren’t any places in the US that I have found with these parts. The parts aren’t too expensive until you include shipping. Hope this helps! ![1B82B13D-6ED8-4812-A9CE-31E0524A97C9](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/3/b/83b48344b2ea34e70d22cc229f4dba9a03503312.jpeg) ---

Thanks for the info! I’ve been dragging my feet on ordering parts from Japan 😝 In particular I can 3D print spacers all day but I can’t really replicate the axles, as any material I would 3D print them in would be likely to shear. ---

It would be great to have a way to print axles! I really wish the material would work. I spent some time looking for a comparable part online and spent $14 on Amazon picking up dowel screws (this experiment didn’t work). I also thought about working with a machine shop but have a feeling that would be even more expensive. The only places I have found axles are in Japan and in the UK. ---

If you had the specs, it seems that cutting a piece of rod to the right length and properly threading it would be an easy job for a local machine shop. Maybe even a good project for a local vocational school machine shop if there is one near you.
