My Modded YoyoJam Speedmaker (5+ Pics & Info)

Yo-Yo Mods and Maintenance
1

Sup, heres my Modded Speedmaker.

Mods:
-Homemade Credit Card Shims ( To lazy to buy real shims :P)
-Siliconed (Silicon Job looks stupid in the pic, its because of the lighting and the crappy quality of my camera. In person looks better)
-Shaved Starburst System ( W/ Sandpaper)
-Removed Caps (Looks 100% better w/ out caps)

Some info:

  • The gap is a lot wider with the credit card shims.
  • Plays better than before
  • Sleep times increased by at least 5-10 seconds
  • Extremely unresponsive ( Not Joking)
  • Binding is a little slippy ( Once and a while )

That’s awesome! :wink:

Your binds are getting slippy because the starburst were sanded…

But do you have a drill?

4

Nope.

5

Do you still have the O-Ring?

6

Same. I’m also really impressed by the credit card shims.

7

Yea.

8

Is that a joke ?

9

It sorta looks like a DelToro. Gimme :stuck_out_tongue:

All jokes aside great job. :slight_smile:

10

Tell me how that would be a joke. I never heard of credit card shims, and you made some, and I think they are unique and cool.

11

After the silicone wears out, replace it with the O-Ring.

Because since the the O-Ring is a more aggressive response, binds will be more snappy.

Yep. Awesome.

12

Cool, thanks Vivo ! :smiley:

13

Not necessarily.

14

Slippy Binds were getting really annoying. I Took out the Silicone and put the O-Ring back in and the binds are great. And its still unresponsive, which is great!

15

I know right?

BTW, did you get your Die-Nasty yet?

16

Not yet. When I get it ( Which I hope is today ) I’ll take some pics and post it here. Maybe give a review.

17

Tutorial on Credit Card shims please! I think it’s a better alternative to cardboard and better than metal because you can use your mom’s old unwanted credit cards!

18

Google “How to make homemade shims”.

This is where I got the idea from.
