…besides the Sleep Machine and Roller Woody from Kuhn? I’d really like a C Size 56mm x 43mm Wooden H-Shape. I really need to get a Lathe, here. ---

The jamboo (?) by YYJ. or the RD-1 by Tom Kuhn. ---

I have honestly never heard of the Jamboo or known YYJ to make any Wood Bearing Yo-Yo’s. Kuhn seems to have that market pretty well to themselves, which I can’t say they don’t deserve seeing they were affiliated with BC in the 90’s and the product quality seemed to carry over. ---

RD-1 with weight rings is great, just wish the response was better…they should do a silicon-recessed version. ---

Well, I did look for that Yo-Yo by Eric Wolff as suggested and was unable to find it. Even more interesting, is the idea of “AlchemyYoYos”. The Logo even with proper usage of Elemental Symbolism.
