Yoyo CAD & Prototyping Adventures

[AtomicChessGuy]

I read this post a while back from @GTDropKnot

Favorite Yoyo and Why?

Hades is my favorite Yoyo. It has a perfect width for me, 44.67. The diameter, 59.9, is large and I love how the sizes makes it look when doing tricks and that the larger diameter helps with power and spin time. It also fits my big palms well. The shape is perfect with the rounded out to rims bc it’s so comfortable and easy to catch. It’s super heavy, 80g, and I love how the weight feels. It’s easy for me to control. I can’t really play faster with lighter yo-yos so it’s not like it’s slow…

I thought I would try experimenting with a heavier yo-yo. Will make a less center weighted version in the future.

Specs:
Width: 48mm
Diameter: 56mm
Half Weight: ~38.55gms
Assembled Weight: ~80.01192gms
MMOI: 18133
Body: 7075 Aluminum
Rims: 303 Stainless Steel
Axle: M4 x 8mm x 0.7mm

However, I also wanted to know what the yoyo would be like if it were more competition oriented/less heavy so I made another yoyo.

Specs:
Width: 48mm
Diameter: 56mm
Half Weight: ~30.09gms
Assembled Weight: ~63.099gms
MMOI: 17284
Body: 7075 Aluminum
Rims: 303 Stainless Steel
Axle: M4 x 8mm x 0.7mm
