Let’s make this yoyo a CLYW. ---

Let’s say Uranium isn’t deadly radioactive in this case. How would it do as a yoyo? ---

Then you’d have a metal yoyo with Gallium stuck on it, which would melt all over your hands when you held it. ---

> [@The Yo mast3r](#): > > Let’s say Uranium isn’t deadly radioactive in this case. How would it do as a yoyo? Similar density to gold/tungsten. Stronger than Titanium, but obviously at the cost of all that added weight. It would no doubt cost a lot. I’m sure there would be better options. Tungsten Carbide for instance is a bit less dense (~14g cm/3 as opposed to ~19g) but considerably stronger so you could be more creative with weight distribution. Would probably cost you a fortune in tooling costs making a run of them though. 😛 ---

Oh, I’d totally love to try pour gallium over my cheap, unstable MYY Rainbow. But I don’t have gallium, and I doubt I’d be able to get any. ---
