were these hand machined?
Honestly, we arenât completely sure what his process is, but they are computer driven machines.
I must be blind, I canât see if you posted the specs. And these donât have an IRG do they?
We never posted the specs. will do shortly.
Specs!
Width: 39 mm
Diameter: 52.5 mm
bearing: size C (will come with one drop ten ball)
response: CBC slim pad
Weight is still unknown
how do you not know the weight? didnât you turn one out already?
and itâs pretty skinny.
we just havenât accurately weighed it yet. everyoneâs been busy. as for the skinniness, weâre going to widen the gap out about 1 or 2 mm.
my ideal width is like 42 to 43mm, the yoyo looks nice though when do you think the prototypes will be made?
EDIT: For better words when will the FINAL prototypes be made?
that depends on how long the testers take to give feedback. we probably wonât get another set for at least a month.
Hey, quick question, I finally got the volume working, but for I canât get the weight right. It says the volume of another design that I have is 13.77 cm3, but that comes out to be 37 grams. Does anybody know why? is that about right for the volume?
I think so its just for one haft of the yoyo!
no, I made sure that itâs for the whole yoyo. the volume for one half is 6.889, so I doubled that to get the volume of the whole yoyo, which is 13.
9, iâd really love to try this thing out, i also really want to know how to review a pre-production yoyo with more accuracy (my friend is beggining to produce some stuff) Maybe this could work for both of us? Hit me up!
well i may be doing something wrong, but that volume dosent sound right⌠from what Iâve read the density of 6061 aluminum is 2.7 grams per cm^3, so in a 66 gram yoyo (assuming the yoyo minus the response axle and bearing, weighs 66 grams, a bit of a heavy yoyo, but Iâm using it for arguments sake) the volume should be 24.4444âŚetc⌠cm^3 so the 6.889 would make sense more as a quarter of the yoyo⌠because didnât you say your yo-yos were a bit on the heavy side (they looked it from the CAD, but idk, i might just be imagining things).
thanks,

Well if you have a proto then go to the supermarket and have them put it on a meat scale.( put together with bearing) problem solved.
ghost: yes, weâre going to weigh them soon
Fly: I just donât know, it did look heavy to me, but It gave me that volume
Where/how did you get that volume?
Just curious.
I use a different kind of software as well, called blender. itâs not for design, but for animation and art and stuff. I replicated the design in blender and then found a plugin that calculates the volume and used that.
Iâd be glad to test one out.
