It includes the bearing seat, post, and response groove.

This yoyo is 66g, with 21g of stainless steel center weight on each half ![woke state](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/e/f/eef6456ede346db1335822d897cd0df9797a130c.png) ![woke stateee](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/a/c/5aca0e54de3c153fd4269bc964b1abb53d7e4dd1.png) LOL it looks like it would play so bad that I actually wanna try it! ---

I only printed one half and paired it up with an MC half. It actually plays okay—but not great—despite the hole not being centered and not having any response in the groove. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/8/3/783888470d19b1aa2dc208f0e32756cd0bfc9b35.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/0/2/4026f13ad231f6c676edcbcfc5a176df120c3d49.jpeg) ~~I’m a bit dismayed by my printer’s inability to get the hole centered properly. I had the model flat on the build plate with the bearing seat facing away from the build plate. I just don’t think that budget 3D printers are reliable enough to produce high precision output like you’d need for a decent yoyo.~~ Okay, I think the hole is actually centered after all, but it looks off-center depending on lighting; shadows cast on it have a freaky way of making the hole look way, way off to the naked eye. ---

No. I’m still new at this. I measured the rings at 48mm and made the space for them to be 48mm, which means they don’t fit. I need to make the space slightly larger than 48mm. ---

Thanks! It’s a profoundly basic, unoriginal shape/design, but its primary purpose was to just see what I could get out of my resin printer. Maybe down the road I’ll have the patience to try a more interesting, original design. ---

Yes. It’s a design that the whole team weighed in on, and are currently testing. The goal was to make something sturdy, comfortable, and futuristic-looking, with inner rings that stay out of the way and give it a forgiving amount of power. Might be ready late this year, need to do plenty of testing so that any tweaks come out just right. ---
