I’m seeing quite a few Survivalists on the BST for sale. I know there’s lots of reasons why people sell off their yoyos, but I hope people aren’t going sour on them. ---

Im certainly not, I took a short break from my six-shooter survivalist to focus a bit more on wood fixies but have been back to playing it everyday for the last 3 weeks. It has such a unique feel in play and on the response. I still love it very much! ---

There’s nothing wrong with the Survivalist, but in my case I let mine go because I picked up what I genuinely feel is one of the best fixies ever made. Love this thing so much. It still smells good by the way. ![IMG_5753](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/4/3/8433f9e70e1197467f0cbe59f01e3f35936fd652.jpeg) ---

I’ve only been printing yoyos since this weekend and started designing in late September, but for me the hard part was realizing how much I wanted to make yoyos and believing that I could make it happen. CAD is free and you can always use a service like shapeways to get your design printed. I did that for my first one and it was under $50 My 3d printer was around $190 which was fairly reasonable considering that I now have a machine that makes yoyos. Living 16yo me’s dreams 😅 [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/show-some-plastic-yoyos-you-made/301570.md?page=41) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/show-some-plastic-yoyos-you-made/301570.md?page=43)
