It’s not often I’m this excited about the prospect of receiving an invoice / bill! 🤣

We will be looking for Patreons soon!

Operator v.2 is back on the drawing board. Opening the catch zone slightly, adding some rim weight. This is the YYBC Organic Unresponsive Yoyo.

Guess right now is $110.00 due to international shipping increases.

Minimum Order will be 9 units. Max Order is 18.

I will keep you guys informed.

You set your own definition of what a “Boomer” is for yourself. It is not generational here.

Welcome to the Club. You have been added to the members list in the first post.

My own definition of boomer is that everyone must concede to my viewpoint as to what a YYBoomer is, otherwise, you’re not a true boomer

So for clarity - when I read this I think of like the “Patreon” website where you have to pay $X a month. Are you looking for Patreon members to support the Operator or folks that want to commit to pre-ordering one of these Operator V2s? I’m not a former but could be a latter.

Club Payreons; Club members willing to pay for the experiment of the Prototype.

We do a sign up internally. 50% is the down payment to place the prototype order. Other 50% is due when they are ready.

The other part of “Patreon” is review and feedback. We typically have a Private message group where the people paying make some decisions. Color of the Prototype for example.

All Prototypes with YYBC have been completed this way. Self funded if you will.

LOL, we may want to fact check me…

The weight rings provided with the Production run adds a total of 3 grams to the yoyo. (3mm cord).

Yoyo accepts 50mm Nominal Outside Diameter Orings.

Readily available Orings with 50mm OD have cords from 1mm to 6mm, including half sizes.

Its jist a heads up that the Operator is working. My guess is about a month until we see movement.

Just wanted to give everyone as much of a heads up as I can.

@Pun1sh3R uses this word here a bit but it’s more like a “backer” or “sponsor” or maybe even “patron”. A Patreon to me is specifically using the Patreon site and is a recurring payment. This is just a half deposit preorder, but the run doesn’t happen unless we hit a minimum order quantity.
