Hey guys, I’m glad I stumbled onto this forum, I’ve been working on a resin printed yoyo for a few months now and have been coming up with ways to help battle the issues that resin printed yoyos run into, I have a Reddit post with my own design, its been through about 7 iterations now with the newest one on the printer as we speak. I have to do a lot of cleanup on the supports currently but I’ve found that print orientation is very important to ensure they don’t warp or have poor surfaces for the bearings and friction pads.

Oh dude thats sick, i dont know how much this would change your design, but if you dont mind having thick and flat rims, then you can just print off of that face. My resin yo was printed with zero supports. ---

Usually the resin density varies between brands, if you’re looking into resins they usually list both their solid and liquid densities ---

Oh dang, I think I forgot to post it here lol, I made a more performance based version of the geo, I call it the geo type R. Also have some other stuff in the works including a heavier version of the type R and another resin yo that’s "huge"ly different in both design and color, more on that once I finish printing it again. Also might try and see polishing one of these yoyos would work. Regardless, photos for all of these should be out by this week. ---

Alright. Here’s the new yoyos I made. All of them were printed without supports, and all of them were made using an elegoo mars 2 pro. By color, the pink is the orga, the green is the geo type R weight tweaked version, and the red is the dumpling. ![IMG_20220325_195156_509](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/b/4/ab464a0d4baab4a1c0afac236edeb0a3716d7bad.webp) ![IMG_20220325_195156_504](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/9/0/19011c166ae085e46b6744db8429ddaf5a9b6d18.webp) ![IMG_20220325_194414_679](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/1/3/d13f56f60497e7de66aaf8b924b84abfb6dc82a2.webp) ![IMG_20220325_193900_952](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/b/6/8b6647f5e151f5da9f5a16b8351cbd36cebb35c1.webp) ![IMG_20220325_193900_722](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/a/0/0a0a83ddde3652bc813bfc598ad31e3d929e05d7.webp) ![IMG_20220325_195156_473](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/0/c/80ce60ae2ac5810e3a60bb28fd8aab44cd395b0e.webp) ---
