> [@winterjibber](#): > > he really wants unresponsive. how do u shave the orings down first of all, hot glue works well. i’ve heard people say that it’s responsive at first but then it breaks down and plays better. Shaving down o-rings is rather simply. Just take a knife(exacto knife, etc) and cut the o-ring until it’s flush with the walls of the yoyo. ---

STOP YOU ARE HOME ALONE AND 13 \> DONT GRAB A KNIFE\> Now I know alot of 13 year olds are allowed to use knives, thats cool. But i have cut into my hand modding, just with a normal sharpblade knife and a yoyo in my hand and I cut myself. It bled quite a bit and this can disorientate you, and you may panic. Just hold up until someone else is there ok mate? ---

Hot glue works just fine. The only problem I’ve found is that if you get too much in, you can’t just shave it down with a knife (when it’s safe) because it’s all stuck together in one big piece so the entire thing comes out all at once. Other than that it works pretty well. ---

> [@wergugy](#): > > i have NO IDEA what hot glue is…peace OUT It’s HOT GLUE. It’s simply glue that’s been heated and seems to harden more than normal glue.
