I missed the stone wash mini ti koi, but I was able to get the raw version. Im thinking of stone washing mine. Is it pretty simple to do, I’m thinking I just throw it in with some ceramic tumbling media 400 grit in mini tumblr? And of course masking all bearing seat,axle thread, etc.

With that same process, you can save your self some time on masking and assemble the yoyo using a dead bearing when putting into the tumbler!

That’s weird. When I was in the YYE store, the raw showed as the only one sold out. I grabbed the last stone washed. Were you in a different store?

I’ve just ordered one in stone washed too. It was available at a few different sites. Spent a whole day deciding between rainbow, raw and stonewashed.
