I am Pro 2A (Second Amendment), and yoyo I guess. May have to have a off line chat about these? But I have built several examples over the years. Manufacturers dont make them the way I like. I cant afford custom… So I do my own little Lay Away (Some may need to look up that term) program. I buy a part here and there. After about a year sometimes more, I assemble the parts into what I want. Not all parts fit the first time and require a little tweaking. ---

Never really considered myself a “maker” but I have been trying my hand at turning, and have been enjoying restoring vintage wood fixies and experimenting modding more modern ones (thicker axles, response dimples, etc.). ---

I’m compelled to make, idle hands… Started modding around '00 and got bored when people started making throws that didn’t need to be modded. Making CWs for 15+ years. Last 6 months been learning to make yoyos, and now string and pouches. @DocPop 's video on a matching CW for every yoyo also triggered something inside me. ![IMG_20240502_110833378_HDR~2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/f/6/9f6c5a85e9421783829188d2ee261169cdf27f99.jpeg) Outside of yoyoing, I make instruments (woodwind, string and percussion), design weaves and knots using wool dyed with plants from my garden, sculpt, carve, draw. Spent 14 years turning an aquarium into a custom riparian biotope replicating lake Xochimilco for my axolotl. My proudest achievement is probably a unique family of oboes I invented which I call Pipa Belare (bleating pipe). For those who love the double reed and the challenge of reed tuning, this is not a doucaine, guanzi or duduk. Sopranino in ebony, custom reed. ![IMG_20240502_121415693_HDR~2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/8/7/487585a166ad174125a5acbaf003e752c25cb89d.jpeg) ---
