I already knew I loved how purpleheart looked with a bit of age, but the zebrawood is the big winner for me. I’ve never seen it in real life before, and the grain pattern looks even prettier in person. I love the shape too if you’d ever consider revisiting it in the distant future. The concave cut on the side is deep enough to pull start, and that cut just feels super unique in your hand (in a good way). ---

Found this old thing I made years ago. Replaced the axle with an 8mm Tassie oak one a couple of years back. It’s was a favourite of my some for ‘drag the dog’ when he was smaller. ![20211106_090646](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/d/9/3d9ebe0cbf870f8ab8fad5e90bd2c077149b9dfa.jpeg) ---

I had a pink Project a while back, but ended up swapping it for a glossy E1NS, I believe. Wish I’d held onto both of those, haha. The P2 has stayed with me because the guys at OD gave it to me when a buddy and I road-tripped from Seattle to Eugene to see their workshop. Got out of the hobby for a few years after that, so I wasn’t aware of this yoyo’s next evolution. I’ll have to give finding one a shot when I have a few bucks to spare; thanks for the recommendation. ---

3D printed yoyos always seem like they have the most satisfying texture to hold. The spikes on this are awesome. ---

It uses a 4mmx20mm steel axel.

Look so great Ray. You inspired me to get after some designs over the last few days. Assuming you printed with the outside face down, I’m wondering how the overhang printed without support. ---

No problems with using supports here. It is a flat cup and less then 45 degree angles. So comes out pretty clean. Be aware it is a 2.4 layer height so definitely will improve when you go down. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/b/a/6baaf8daa95c70639f89b4ec840ab9f42fe72db0.jpeg) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-are-you-throwing-in-2021/331853.md?page=155) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-are-you-throwing-in-2021/331853.md?page=157)
