So I’ve posted this a few times no need to keep posting about it but I’ll share the thread again.

> So my son wanted to help me while I was soaking the bearings for my looping yo-yos in some delightful mineral spirits. While distracted with the solvent my son decided the yoyo halves needed to go back together and in that process he cranked those suckers until the posts snapped the plastic. Bits of plastic jingle in the hollow buddy behind the cap and the halves spin free trapping the post and making my raider, loop720 and match all hunks of plastic trash. That was a bummer and after…

My first yoyo was a raider it’s still a raider but it’s had some work done as noted I. The previous post. It loops pretty well now to be honest.
