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.
I volunteer as tribute! I may only be 34 but my parents are boomers and it rubbed off XD
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
I suppose I can also, IF I MUST, participate in the Operator v2
If you don’t sign me up, I will literally die
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.
More info coming soon on the design process!
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.
Well I wouldn’t want to bump someone better suited so put me on the bubble spot but happy and interested to take part.
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.
I’m tempted depends on when invoices are due
This is the boat I’m sailing in as well
I’ve updated the page with this info, as well as the videos
I really want to get in on this, but alas, I’ll be waiting for the production run again…
…dammit…I posted from the wrong account.
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.
I’m still in.
I’m unsure. Funds are not the same for me at present so I may not be able.
@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.
