This should probably be in the Yoyo Exhibition section. No duh they don’t have the same mass. One still has the ano left on it. EDIT: I’m really not sure now which section this should be in, but apparently we can’t reply when it’s in this section. If you want to move it back to the modding section, that would be fine, in which case, I’m sorry. ---

He definitely got a little carried away there. 5.6 grams is quite a difference in weight. At the same time, difference in weight from half to half won’t necessarily affect play. It may cause some precession, but as long as each half is still perfectly concentric it shouldn’t add any vibe. And, even if it did add vibe, I’m sure some modder would be willing to take it off your hands. For the more technically minded people, that is satinning not shaving. ---

Out of curiosity, from what Brain said. Does anno actually add weight to the yoyo, I thought it was just a chemical treatment to the outside aluminum ---

Yes, it adds weight. You are adding 0.00007" to 0.001" to the yo-yo. At the same time, you are only adding 0.00007" to 0.001" to the yo-yo. The weight change is negligible. ---

Adding ano does not add weight that you would notice. But when you remove ano with sandpaper or machining the yoyo you are removing the metal that is anoed not just the ano. So when people say that they removed the ano and it looks satined then it was sanded. There is a way to remove just the ano but its a chemical process and I’m not sure how its done. ---
