Mods: Please remove if against forum rules. I had gotten the go ahead from @YoYoExpertGarrett awhile ago to BST some 3D printed yo-yos here and there, but just never got around to it. Not trying to start a yoyo factory or anything right now, just looking to sell a few to fund filament to try new designs and have fun with it. I can put in the “up and coming manufactures” or remove altogether if you prefer though. I made a handful of these for folks to try. I think it plays great, maybe you will too. The Big Sun is inspired by the TMBR PockeHt and the OUT Hipster. Imagine a PockeHt, but bigger and with a response bump near the axle. Coming in at 67mm in diameter, it’s a big yoyo, but with a 32mm width and a light weight of 45-49 grams it doesn’t feel unwieldy or overly large in play. The variable infill density, large diameter, and wider than average gap makes for lots of power, long spin times, and a unique feel. The inner 2/3 of the yoyo is mostly hollow at only 15% infill density, while the outer 1/3 is a more solid 45% infill density. This variable weight distribution throughout the body combined with the interesting feel of the matte pla filament and layer lines against the string is something special I think. The 1/4” Walnut axle, 3.5mm gap, and 6 hole response along with the texture of the material itself makes for a consistent response thats not slippy, but likes a deliberate tug. I only have 6 of these right now, but the colors are: Sunset - Matte yellow with tricolor matte RBG Dark Star - Purple/Green Silk with matte black Shine Sprite - Matte Yellow with purple/silver SPF 50 - Matte yellow with matte brown 27$ Shipped CONUS I’m happy to provide the .stl and 3mf files along with detailed slicing and assembly instructions for 5$ so you can 3D print your own as well. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/b/7/0b7c125dfa667ad458ba05a511c6239a75bbac2e.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/1/1/b11ebea92f4213c882a3d5a41f3512e60efd4f8b.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/6/1/261420bb74278bc9c7796f9603236579cd381dea.jpeg) ---

Very cool!! Does the wood axel get pressed in or glued? Is it “take apart” I guess is my question. ---

Pressed and glued. Not take apart. The fit is tight enough that I didn’t even glue the prototype I play and it hasn’t come apart after many hours though. I could print one and not glue it if you wanted. ---

They’re awesome players. Long spinning stall machines. Plus pullstarts and FS. Right on @TheThrowingGnome for hooking these up. [https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3WfDg1rjbv/?igsh=MzY1NDJmNzMyNQ==](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3WfDg1rjbv/?igsh=MzY1NDJmNzMyNQ==) ---

the intrusive thought of printing this closer to 100G hasn’t left me yet. ---

I think it’s around 80g at 100% infill. Not sure. ---

If you still have one available, I would like one! ---
