can we get the thread to 400 posts before it gets wiped off the yye servers and becomes a hall of fame insert for everyoneâs memories; that is the questoin
Well, this was an entertaining and educational (at times) read, thanks everyone.
Thank you for what you do @da5id and @Mazdarx7FD ( everyone at fpm) , and every other company that manufactures, designs, etc. yoyoâs who allow us all to come together and be so passionate about a topic within this hobby that it reaches 400+ posts in a day (completely thought this post was made earlier today. Whoops.)
i donât think thereâs anything better than being a nerd arguing with other nerds about our nerd hobby and where the nerd toys get made, goodnight yâall
So incredibly based
We stan.
The yoyo version of a mic drop.
Knock yerself out, kidsâŚ
I dont understand your comment about FPM and Iâd agree that the width topic diverged. It was really more about modern competition yoyos imo.
This is not really true. They make more yoyos than a good percentage of yoyo companies.
I hope you ding your yoyo tomorrow
Why do you think the bearing seat is so loose?
This is an unfair comparison because it features bimetals
Just wondering if anyone knows if Foxland precision still makes yoyos. They werenât mentioned, but I presume its probably because they donât make yoyos anymore?
Wasnât that a retired guy in his garage doing it? I think his machine broke and didnât wanna fork out for a new one so stopped. I heard that through the grapevine though, so it could be wrong.
I got upset by David making out like OD is the only company that does loose bearing seats. They definitely arenât as Philip proved. It rubbed me the wrong way so when he was also making other quality claims, I got more upset. Itâs not that they donât do those things, Iâm sure they do, itâs that it somehow sets them apart but a lot of companies are doing those things.
That said I reacted poorly and got a bit too mean. Sorry @da5id
I donât think anyone called out FPM. There definitely are other manufactures that use tight tolerances and those yoyos definitely do not hold up after taking the bearing out a few times. Iâve experienced it first hand and have read about others who have to.
