I thought I’d mention I’m the proud owner of these two Yoyos. Glen did a fantastic job on both. They are by far the nicest fixed Yoyos I have. They play better than I had hoped. The little Burly is easily an edc. I highly recommend Glen’s work. ---

For a while now, I’ve wanted to use very light woods in making yoyos, but I haven’t found the right model to use it with. Light woods have some benefits; it requires over sized dimensions to get them within a useable weight range. This results in yoyos that spin stronger than more conventional sized fixed axle yoyos. The Harbinger is the perfect model to experiment with this. The best features of it is its strong spins and powerful regens. Made of oregon, this Harbinger is an absolute powerhouse with a floaty feel. Diameter: 64mm Width: 35mm Weight: 44g. ![20210131_084525](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/5/c/95c0c5220e4bdcb79d4a9f72c4ef88c6ae89b8ec.jpeg) ---

Those were starting to shape up nicely. It looks like you were either putting too much pressure on the piece from the tailstock or the wood may have already had a hairline crack in it. Its also possible you were exerting to much pressure on the blank with your turning tools.
