I know what you mean, it took me like a day and just under an hour of online searches to figure out how to do that lol.
If you’re using Fusion 360 (which it looks like you are), you make things visible or invisible by clicking the little ‘light bulb’ thingie beside each of the ‘layers’ - a layer being either ‘body’ (which is the 3D rotated body of the sketch) or ‘sketch’ (which is the 2D sketch you originally made).
If you de-select the little light bulb beside ‘body’ and you have the ‘sketch’ light bulb lit up, then you can see your sketch again. I recommend to make edits to your sketch, and not the body, if you want to make changes to the yoyo. But, whatever floats your boat
If the Duncan imperial is still being sold then I think that design has a place in the world. It’s valiant first go, just set some goals on how you want it to play and look, then figure out what design steps will get you there. All part of the process my friend.
More cubes.
This was originally an alu model that I modified to get a fairly weighted stainless one.
48x48 abt. 62 grams. Because of the dimensions, it should play close to a full size but still be more pocketable (or not) Edit. It’s also A bearing and cbc small response.
I feel like pocketability has more to do with the smallest of the two dimensions than the larger one. So a 48x48 isn’t really any more pocketable than a 56x48. On the other hand, a 58x30 is super pocketable.
I have no idea. I need to get one machined and get a strobo tuner, and try to tune one
For sure. I want to try a brass one though as it shouldn’t be noticeably weaker as a yoyo axle. And I love me some brass.
So much so that if I ever get a stainless yoyo I’d want it plated and maybe polished.
Fair enough. I’ve just seen enough broken steel axles that I imagine brass breaking easier. Not saying it’s a terrible idea, just something to consider if you actually get to production.
