The yo-yo was made of ice, not the bearing. There’s a video of it out there. ---

Ice is a terrible building material, and is an even worse precision building material. It would be practically impossible to make a bearing from ice. ---

Pretty sure I read that they were machined, then the caps were ultrasonic welded, and then the yoyo was re-machined. Makes perfect sense to me, but I can’t find specifically where that info is. ---

The Superwide is indeed pretty strange! But fun. And yes, I found the response a bit slippy, too. ---

> [@PatCondon](#): > > Pretty sure I read that they were machined, then the caps were ultrasonic welded, and then the yoyo was re-machined. Makes perfect sense to me, but I can’t find specifically where that info is. There was no welding involved. The caps were simply press fit to the bodies and then machined over to hide where the two met. When asked about the yo-yo pictured earlier that has been cut to show the cross section, Steve said that it was just easier for him to throw a yo-yo half on a bandsaw than to render a decent model. ---
