Will be shutting down the powder coating operation soon for a short time.

Getting a little overworked and want to complete some personal stuff, hint hint.

Ohhhhh, So you did get my Pm?:wink:

or am i being morbidly confused? haha!
Overworked isnt good!
Fun is good :slight_smile:

dannnnnng! nIce work on the al5!

Aaaaah now what am I going to spend my hard earned money on… Now I’m going to actually have to throw some of these things instead of just ogling them on your thread!

Well not a complete shut down, throttle back a good bit.

Your Hut project is 98% complete btw. Just putting the finishing touches on the extras. I consider this the crown jewel of my work. There are a few things in this project that make it a true one of a kind. Coupled with the combo of powders that need to stand as individuals over the base color it has been a difficult task but has poured a wealth of knowledge into my craft.

Some of the reasons I want to get a bit of time for my projects is due to this Hut. So many ideas have popped into my head from the experimentation with it they are dying to get out.

You definitely know how to make a boy happy :wink:

I know! I only said that because he did it gloss white. The peak design has a Gloss White With a plus gloss peak. (Maybe not gloss for the peak??)

Maybe I’ll airbrush it on. ;D

You will need Chris’s permission.

You can do whatever you want, as long as you don’t sell it. Even then, he could sell them all he wanted legally. As far as I know, the Peak design isn’t copyrighted.

In general, this forum (oh heck, the world at large, really) has a lot of misunderstanding about Tradmarks, Copyrights, and Patents.

Your yoyo and you can most certainly do with it as you see fit. You need permission from no one.

I strongly advise against any resale of an item that is a copy of someone else’s design.

With that said knock your socks off!

Yeah, there actually has to be one for it to apply!

Yep. Boils down to a “moral” issue. If you feel comfortable mugging someone’s design feel free. I for one would rather ask about it. I’m in the beginning stages of doing one for myself on a recently purchased Peak.

I will also let it be known that I had plans on doing two more of them for the public. A Petra version, which is the pink OG if I’m correct, for my Secret Santa and an the plaid OG version for someone who shall remain nameless.

I pm’d Chris twice and he never got back to me. I have to say I’m a little disappointed that no reply was given. I stated my intentions to him that those two would be the limit as to my OG endeavors. A simple take a hike reply would suffice for me.

Bad form if you ask…

Just kidding. I wouldn’t damage Bob’s beautiful work with my poor skills, even if I did want that look.

Here it is folks the 15,000 view giveaway. 2012 YYF Rockstar done in a chrome base, purple wave, mirror yellow and mirror red fade/wash finish.

Wanted something a bit more fun and fitting of a Rockstar of course. Seems like a lot of the recent stuff I’ve done have been solids and straight forward. Always like the chance to have freedom with some of the stuff I do so here it is.

Box also has a chrome base for the letters and a wrinkleed/texture type finish on the yellow. Purple and red splash pick up the colors of the Rockstar as well.

Mondo is a Ditch Down 44 member so I was happy to let it show on his box. Strings are a 4 color and 2 color in matching colors.

Congrats mondo6611!
