A friend of mine decided to part with some of his collection. I’ll have a hard time beating this mail day.

RSO YWETI Se, OYY Echelon, ILYY teatime, duncan orbital gtx, duncan origami, CircleCity Warbird, YYR Acrophobia, YYR Impact, YYR Z-On, General Yo ‘evidence’ M-10, Gen Yo Majesty (early run), Gen Yo Ministar 2, CLYW Illest Campfire, CLYW nickle plated Peak, Gen Yo pre-production Prophecy, YYF mini aviator, Damien Pucket 7068/Ti bimetal, Yoyoball Plot Armor

X3 teh, Crucial Whole Milk, something wooden, X3 Aware, some delrin (not a bolt2), Raven 888, Werrd Beef, various begleri, and the case.

 ![IMG_0049](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/e/3/8e3dec91cc43e143b495ae9da49ba40c8edcf9bd.jpeg)

Not in picture CLYW Wildfire proto and OD cabal.

If anybody knows what the wooden yoyo and the black delrin are, I’d love to know.

The delrin looks like a Toybania Thing (v1).

You can see one here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gblFOsJrpv0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gblFOsJrpv0)

Not sure about the wooden yoyo. Hildy Bros maybe? Do you have a profile photo?

Would need to see the profile, but from the looks of that amazing collection I would say it’s probably a special edition inlaed TMBR Baldwin.

It does look like a Baldwin! The original run was pre-wood-thread-axle-system.

Got this awesome fixie from @RC_yo-yo and it is fantastic. Perfect weight for its size, great response (not quite loose enough for a kweej, bit probably after some breaking in), and damn it looks good. Can’t wait to get my ManGreeze™️ all up in it and really get that grain showing. Zebrawood and purpleheart with an Oak cap! Artfully done, and I’m a happy camper.

Bought a cheapie vintage “Lacewing” Butterfly on Ebay for $6. In ok shape, but the axle is rusty. Any tips to smooth/remove the rust?

I used baking soda and vinegar. Sprinkle a little vinegar into the gap, then sprinkle a little baking soda in there, then soak a string (I used a broken cotton one but I doubt it matters) in vinegar. Wrap the string a couple times, then ripcord that bad boy a few times. Should clear up all the rust and rinse away the rest. Dry well with paper towel. Restring and get it spinning!

When I started reading the list I thought for sure the YWETi SE Mk 1 would be the stand out but then there’s this nugget of gold (or should I say nickel) buried in the list:

Absolutely do it. I’ve built one flat-top, two Maccaferri-style Gypsy guitars, and two archtop mandolins. I’ve got three solid-body mandolins in process, but they have been languishing untouched on the bench for about five years now - I’ve been having too much fun playing the others. There is nothing quite like playing an instrument with your name on the peghead.
