It sounds like you have the same problem as this topic:

> For no reason that I know of, all of the sudden my dm2 won’t unscrew because the little metal thing in the center is sliding with the plastic instead of staying firm… so now when I try to unscrew it, it just slides… help plz

If it does sound like you have the same problem, please at least lock this thread (the lock button is in the lower left corner of the webpage) and follow the responses posted in that thread. If it turns out the problem with his yoyo isn’t the same as the problem with your yoyo, then let us know. :wink: (And don’t worry about it being a different yoyo. If it’s the same problem with different yoyos that are as alike as the DM2 and Revolution (and sometimes other yoyos), then it’s the same problem).
