I made a couple of yoyos as birthday presents for students in my class.

I’m tempted to scrap the unresponsive run I’ve started and just smash out a run of 20 of these next holidays instead.

That recycled rainbow material is amazing. You’d sell 20 with a quickness.

They definitely have that whimsical [Duncan Disney’s World of Color](http://www.yoyomuseum.com/museum_view.php?action=view&subaction=exhibit&exhibitid=273) to them

I think a slimline with bearing out of this material might be a hit.

Not easy to.achieve, unfortunately. The material creeps a lot, so it doesn’t handle the compression of the cap and bearing seat against the wall. Eventually you just can’t tighten the yoyo properly. Having said that, while it’s working, it’s great.

If this ends up happening I would definitely be down to buy one. The material looks gorgeous.

I refitted the yoyo I made the other day with an 8mm AL axle and now it’s a fantastic 0A yoyo! A true POM Knack.
