Wowā€¦ I was telling everyone I was going to cast some FHZā€™sā€¦ and everyone kept giving me little comments that basically kept me from actually doing itā€¦ basically being really pessimistic towards itā€¦ like there wasnā€™t a snowballs chance it would work. šŸ˜• Maybe Iā€™ll still follow through? edit: But yeah, Ed, you have a nice Zero collection!

Only serious issue Iā€™d see with casting a yoyo is planning the two halves of the mold. Besides that itā€™s just another cast really. Iā€™m definitely trying this summer, give me some validity into perhaps casting my own designs. Would be cheaper to try modding on replicas alsoā€¦ Hmmm. :wink: ---

yeahā€¦ I was going to cast some Mod Spacers, so I could get them in whatever color I wantedā€¦ Then I got to thinking about doing a whole FHZā€¦ then I got to thinking about doing FHZ + Mod Spacer into one pieceā€¦ I want to make a SUPER chunky glittery FHZā€¦ lolā€¦ ---

Well, I messed around with all the spacers I own, and the sili filled Offstring Spacers. All the spacers, except the ones that come with either the Mod/Offstring Spacer make the gap waaay too big. So big infact that you canā€™t screw the yoyo together. So I tried with the spacers it was intended to be used with, and the gap was quite narrow. The sili worked, but the binds werenā€™t tight. Throw putting sili in the 4 holes out the window. Not worth it. ---

I ordered over 200 LEDs, various colors, brightnesses, angles. I think I ordered 30-40 Slow Color Change LEDs if anyone wants to convert their Light Up to slow rainbow fade, which IMO looks significantly better. I also have lots of Light Up technology on the way, thanks to everyone whose helped outā€¦ will make it a lot easier to experiment with. I plan on doing lots of different experimenting with the LEDsā€¦ -Two LEDs per half is pretty fun. There is a groove cut out of the bottom of the LED ā€˜boardā€™, which is good for housing the second LED. Also makes the two LEDs align pretty well when spinning. This can make for some pretty fun color mixingā€¦ call it an ā€œelectric fadeā€ - Figuring out what angles look best. LEDs have lots of options, the ā€œviewing angleā€ can be narrow or wide, which messes with the brightness of the LED itself. The stock LED has a viewing angle of 30 degrees. I got various flavors of 23-30, 30, 42-50, 55-65, stuff like that. So Iā€™m expecting a much more illuminated FHZ with the wider angles. Iā€™m thinkin I can get a Day Glow FHZ to glow perfectly, as inā€¦ you canā€™t see the LED really, but the whole body just glows perfectly. - Iā€™m going to figure out which colors look best, and which colors make Transluscent FHZs really pop. I got many different shades (wavelengths) of each color. Can you picture a clear FHZ that becomes an Electric Bape color-theme? - Opaque FHZā€™s with clear caps. Positioning the LEDā€™s to shine out of the caps for a cool effect. - And most interestingly, IMOā€¦ cutting a groove within the ā€œgutsā€ of the FHZ so that an LED can shine through the response area. This might sound very, very dumb to you. But if you position an LED into the actual body of the FHZ, poking out flush where the response pad isā€¦ Then you install Clear Mod Spacers onto the FHZ, you can very effectively light up the Mod Spacers, for an electric dual tone per half. Four color FHZ I got lots of ideas, and I have no problem sharing. I hope someone else out there gets as fascinated with Light Ups as me. ---

Iā€™m surprised they donā€™t sell Light Up FHZā€™sā€¦ I really wish they sold Blind packs of Caps. Like, $10 for three sets of random caps. Like, opaque ones, translucent and glitter ones, special ones. That would be sooo cool, they could have ā€œspecial editionā€ caps that have increased rarity. Like, 1 out of every 500 packs could have Chrome caps. That would be pretty sweet. ---

So, I personally donā€™t have a FHZ, but would all of you recommend one? And what do you think would be a pretty good set up? I imagine just a silicone recess would be good enough to make it dead unresponsive, right? I donā€™t know, I only own Duncan fixed axles, so I have no idea. What would you recommend?
