FYI did some calculations and mathematically it looks like it’s gonna have to be spikes or orbs for the hardware. I need the additional axle clearance to make it fit together just right. Probably gonna do orbs to start for the prototype since they will be simpler to machine. ![delrin_nsoedive_reduced_gap_2026-Feb-09_11-45-13PM-000_CustomizedView13416795677](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/3/c/f3cbc249e8eb3c02dcc4ab4cf6d0c04533f2ed1c.jpeg) ---

Diamond Like carbon isn’t super sparkly necessarily, it’s usually black but is pretty cool and super hard, and polishes up to look really nice. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/7/8/e78f3b9338284847c66ca1f2131442f21161b5d7.jpeg) ---

I have seriously considered this. Mostly for the wild project idea I have for a steel yoyo with interchangeable scales, like micarta, carbon fiber, g10 with tritium etc. that project is gonna be a ways out. ---

They don’t have it listed but who knows maybe they will do it for me. For my steel and interchangeable scales I was considering contacting some shops that normally do mostly knives since a lot of the elements from it would be more in their wheelhouse. ---

Awkward, the brown delrin teflon blend is even more expensive than Ultem. It’s really really expensive :joy: so white it is. I might dye some brown though. I’ve dyed delrin before. ---

Folks are also welcome to edit their votes now though maybe another color will pull ahead with brown off the table. ---

I love dying Delrin! I did a cabal a while back and it came out lovely. Also one step at a time here but my adhd couldn’t resist tweaking the design a little to make a lighter weight polycarbonate version for the future. ![pc_nosedive_lite_2026-Feb-10_09-08-53AM-000_CustomizedView14624445582](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/b/8/0b810fd99aee8cd2954a5bfd97e5e674eff7a7de.jpeg) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/return-bottoms-aka-sickburn-yo-yo-workshop-news-and-updates/430149.md?page=30) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/return-bottoms-aka-sickburn-yo-yo-workshop-news-and-updates/430149.md?page=32)
