The YAGI YOYO TEAM (not entirely sure who leads this but my understanding is it’s a performance group made up of a bunch of YYR people and some friends like takumi hakamata, toru miyazaki, ayumu harada, sota aoyagi, etc.) recently released one actually, they worked with a ceramics manufacturer in japan to make 50 of them.
I’ve seen porcelain 3d print filament that needs kiln fired to sinter it and have wanted to try it out.
Honestly… I’ve also looked at clay 3d printers too and hotly debated with myself about the idea of purchasing one. In the end spending $500 on a tronxy to try to foolishly make a clay yoyo ended up being determined to be a bad investment so I didn’t do it…. Yet.
Some bandalores from Ancient Greece were made of clay. It’s definitely possible. I imagine it would be difficult to perfect, however. My uncle is a professional potter, I will see if he has any thoughts on the matter
Ohh 120g that’s gonna be heavy on the string. Sounds super cool though Also 44k yen. That’s like 300 usd… I guess I’m not buying a ceramic yoyo tonight lol
hmmm hypothetically, but its finicky to set up, never used it personally but i’ve seen a friend print a really weird vase but you can see all the layers as they’re just micro coils
Sounds like a poorly tuned machine with a bad z offset or a really large nozzle which may be needed for that kind of printing to be honest not sure how that would work. Either way that would be super neat to see
