Hey Jeff, what (In your humble-but-correct opinion) would be the most useful college degrees to get if I was going into yoyo manufacturing. (If you want you can include both a major and a minor… )  
I was thinking something like physics or engineering, but there are other aspects to yoyo manufacturing than the designing and machining .

I don’t think you need a degree for yoyo manufacturing, but for manufacturing in general something in Mechanical Engineering or Material Sciences is likely what you are looking for. I did a few years of Mechanical Engineering, but I’ve learned everything I know mostly online.

Coolio. Where are some places you’ve learned that kind of stuff?

Mostly just google searches and youtube! Tones of information on there about material properties, how thing things should go. Tolerances and grain structure.
