Both usually take either commission or have some stock. Ed is replenishing stock after an injury so his site is a bit bare and Dave might be going to worlds so might be a slight delay also he usually is traveling doing yoyo shows during the summer but if you reach out he usually is upfront on the wait and when he can get to it
I made my own yoyo cases very easily. I bought the cases themselves from Walmart and the foam from hobby lobby. I cut the top off a Campbell condensed chicken soup can(the smaller one) to make the circle cuts in the foam. Dylan Kowalski has a good video on YouTube for this but yeah I just cut out the circles and glued the foam down and bam. Custom yoyo case for about 30 bucks total
I’ve been talking with Dave on getting an heirloom made. He said he’s got a bunch of shows in August and it’ll likely be September before he can make it for me which seems very reasonable.
Honestly don’t sleep on the YYF Legend Wing or the newer Duncan Butterflys. I had my doubts but recently got a Legend Wing and it’s amazing. The response is just perfect on it, which is how I feel about the Plasm. The new Butterflys are also great. I’ve found the play really well with Alphaline string. Just got 2 of the Peanuts editions yesterday at a local hobby store for $6 each. The psychedelic edition which you can get here on YYE is also well worth it.
