Sadly, you are NOT wrong.  
TK is a mess right now. the site is out of stock of most items, and the company only has the ability to order wood parts in bulk. Nearly a year after ending my brief affiliation with the company, I am STILL getting messages regarding non-completion of online orders and refunds. Tom is one of the best human beings i have ever met, but he is completely removed from the running of the company, which is just kind of in limbo right now (which has happened before, but not to this extent). Tom Kuhn Custom Yo-Yo’s is a legend in this industry, and I genuinely hope they can find a way to right the ship.

When asked what fixed axles I recommend, I generally advise people toward TMBR (which has also slowed down as Colin has been busier with furniture), OUT, and Hildy Bros. Jensen has been doing his thing for awhile, and I hear good stuff, and it’s easy enough to find a decent No Jive out there online. But yeah, the world definitely needs people to keep the craft of simple wooden yo-yo’s alive.
