Does this work for 4a yoyos too? I don’t know if it matters or not

Yes but the hub will have to be press fit metal because 4a yo-yos are plastic.

Fusion 360 - As with anything Autocad, it is EXPENSIVE! Only free for 30 days and then $80 per month minimum. :frowning:

Otherwise a great resource.

I use Onshape but you can use Fusion 360 for free.
