You can also re-shape it. Sand the edges down so it can be flat-rimmed. ---

> **[Schmoove Rings](https://yoyo.fandom.com/wiki/Schmoove_Rings)** > > Schmoove Rings are rings cut into the face of the yo-yo. They are placed outside of the area of the response system. The Yes, Absolutely The End, the YoYoFactory Hectic, the Plug-in 3, and Mary 2009 edition are the only known production yo-yos with... Usually flatening the Yo-Yo’s rings. :wink: ---
