holy heck i hate yoyo displays. i like when things are complete, even, and preferably symmetrical. even and symmetrical are out the window up front. that leaves me with complete. if i make the display able to hold exactly all of the yoyos i own then i have no room for new throws and any new ones will have to have a separate display…which will start off not being full! conversely if i just start with something big enough to accommodate all my throws plus room for new ones, then i have an incomplete display and that obviously is unacceptable so then i have to buy more yoyos to fill the slots but then i have to buy another display cuz MOAR YOYOS!.. i may have a problem… ---

The trick is to SELL displays so you can buy more yo-yos to fill more displays. You could display your displays on BST, then display your filled displays showing off how well your displays display your collection. Display. ---
