The dimensions are all a fraction smaller to make the weight lower. Kyle prefers the KNack around the 46-48g mark. I have also fitted them with hand turned axles instead of cut stock dowel. This makes them feel smoother on the spin. As with all of my yoyos now, it is also glued with epoxy instead of wood glue like the original run. The changes are not major, but there are enough to consider it a version 2, not really a new model. ---

You definitely have your own style going on there, I like the contours of the faces of the yoyos you make. Nice job on the hand-turned axles too, it’s a nice touch and can be tricky to make. ---

Does purple heart usually darken up a lot. The first picture is after a month of being made.

Had an old piece pf blacknean I’ve been meaning to turn for ages, and I made 4 of these today (one is still curing). Nothing particularly interesting, its just a basic butterfly shape.

The ones I just posted arent for sale, but is anyone interested in something like this for $50 shipped to the US? It’s a classic butterfly shaped fixie with the full Spinworthy logo. Around 50-55g. They play superbly by the way. If so, I’ll make a few today. _Poll ([view on site](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/show-some-wooden-yoyos-youve-made/84381/896))_ [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/show-some-wooden-yoyos-youve-made/84381.md?page=42) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/show-some-wooden-yoyos-youve-made/84381.md?page=44)
