That was one awesome byproduct of putting the blank in my RBC too. Pretty fun to throw around in complete silence.

Yeah I loved my RBC but it was like yo-yoing with a hornet hive on a string. I had to wear headphones and throw in my office with no family around. Blank fixed that.

Look, just because the expert authority on the matter told me it wouldn’t work doesn’t mean I’m gonna listen.

Does anyone know if permanent marker would stay on the plastic surface?
I’ve never worked with writing on plastic

It will likely rub off.

I actually LOVE the way my RBC hisses with the dry MR85 in it.

Needed to put a trigger warning on that one.
(To be clear, not for me)

I’m autistic and noise sensitive the sound of even a lubed bearing in the RBC makes me want to lay down on the ground and die on the spot or run screaming through a plate glass window. Same with most Ti yo-yos. Most dry bearings too honestly.
I’m glad I had the good sense to not watch this video of a dry bearing in one, it would probably destroy me for the day and I have work to do
My family is also autistic and so all unresponsives, Ti, or other noisy bearings are played in my office workshop alone with noise canceling headphones on.
