Like an irving, but more comfortable on a catch. It is not as narrow either, so I think stalls are easier to regin out of. I may make a small run this summerfor the BST :wink:

It is good to see another yo-yoer getting into hand turning yo-yos.

Awesome work!

My first attempt at a fixed-axle throw turned out to be a vibe-riddled monster, as you allude to! Had much better luck with subsequent attempts.

That crop circle response seems pretty cool! I just ripped off the TMBR style response for mine.

If you’re making a wait list, mark me down for one. :wink:

It is not a take apart. I will remember to take a photo of the response before I glue the two halves next time too.

Perhaps I could interest you in a powder coated tester? Free of charge of course.

I think a nice purple might suit you well. PM me if your interested.
