Hello All,
So my collection has grown quite a bit and I have been back and forth on how to display and organize my throws. This is attempt 1 of ??? I know that the organization of the throws is off, but this was just a start. Any ideas on how to better display would be great. Thanks.

Looks pretty cool right now, I personally use some Ikea cd stand things, they’ve got mirrors in the back, makes them look a little bigger
Good Luck!

Can you put up a picture when you have a chance to? I’d like to see it.
There’s a guy on FB B/S/T, who 3d printed hexagonal “tubes” (not sure what to call 'em) that interlock. I’ll see if he’s on here so he can share the pic.

Hexagons are cool. I’ve been using the Michael’s soda crates but those are boring old squares!

Clean lines ftw. But I’m not a big fan of displaying entire collections so it’s a non-issue for me.
I just wanted to show this little display idea I’ve been using. Didn’t think it deserved a whole topic though. I had this little metal sign with magnetic pins on it. One day I tried to hang a yoyo and it works pretty well to keep one handy. Of course this will only work on yoyos with a lip. 3 pins seems to work for me but more can fit to make it secure, or maybe bigger pins are available. If you have a displate style art-piece this could be pretty cool I think. And one more point, I don’t think the magnets are strong enough or close enough to effect the bearings but someone let me know if you think its a bad idea for metal ball bearings. Anyway, way too long for this but I thought it was neat.

A board with bits of paracord knotted through the holes to form little hanging loops. Simple but secure, cheap and can be scaled appropriately.

I had a 50lb magnet that I hung a yoyo on and nearly ruined it. It vibes like CRAZY now. Still usable, but it lost some spin time. It was a beater and I haven’t cared enough to try a new bearing in it yet. But I haven’t hung another yoyo like that since.

ya well 50lb magnets are meant to hold like, firearms. these are magnets covered in plastic that probably weigh like 1 gram meant to hold paper.
