I need to make a second cap that matches the weight before I throw it so it doesn’t go wild :joy: right now it’s a little lopsided but makes a fun desk gadget. I’ll try to make a matching cap for the reverse! ---

All you need is matching weight. Doesn’t necessarily need to be a functional screen like the one side… just weigh/ distribution similar. My apologies… you said that. ---

Yep that’s the plan! I didn’t actually buy two screens, speakers, etc. at least not two of the same kind of this one… I have a bunch more small screens and microcontrollers and stuff and have some other weird ideas to make including some with matching sides. ---

Okay here is all 88 grams of it in a trapeze stall :joy: the electronics and custom fit cap are 17.2 grams so I had to break out the steel filled filament to match the weight. I also had to throw carefully because it has a lithium battery in it and I don’t want to ding it and explode.

I have this insane idea I probably won’t have the time to actually pull off where it’s a video game. You throw a stall to start it. Then you control by rotating the yoyo in the stall. Maybe do a flip to jump. Accelerometer, some other sensors… there’s something there. ---

I got it here! They seem to only do Pi 5 cases though and this was the only Space Wagon one. I was actually going to use a LattePanda to make an x86 Cyber Deck but this case was so freaking cool I couldn’t resist. > **[Items for sale by raspberrymetal | eBay](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ssn=raspberrymetal&store_name=raspberrymetal&_oac=1&_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l49496)** > > Shop eBay for great deals from raspberrymetal! ---

As good a place as any to post this considering 1) it’s a very retro game and 2) I already posted several yoyo electronic monstrosities here.

I just made a nice discovery. I have Trompos Space Neptuno spin tops and really like them. I noticed the other day that the o-rings on mine were all cracking and dry rotting. Since I had the weight rings for the Workhorse lying about… I decided to try one. Not only is it a better fit than the original, it’s also heavier giving a much smoother play feel and improved spin time and power. This was with the light weight ring. I’m not sure where my heavies are but I imagine they could be even better. ---
