Learning the CAD tools better. Hybrid pom/steel with cutouts. 59 grams and probably needs a lot of work still. Really generic V shape with 56x43mm dimensions.
Same yoyo but with transparent polycarbonate as the body material. Hard to see on a computer.
Thanks Mark.
That looks amazing.
I believe pic 3 is the copied.
Still, amazing job m8!
Also, just wondering, what material should I use to prototype my yoyo?
Titanium is like 30 USD for a pound so it might not cost as much.
The process of making it tho might make the price kick the can so…
Looking for a cheap, but sturdy material sort of like the replay or something
Aluminum or polycarbonate or delrin will be your cheaper options to make something nice.
This is like 10 times the price of 6061 T6 aluminum.
Here’s a mega post of a couple things I’ve been working on:
Undersized SS yoyo (50ishx41mm)
Cool W shape. 55x44
Familiar looking bimetal anyone?
Titanium drawing. 54.5x43.5 powerful but also only 62 grams with a good amount of mid weight.
A couple other stuff too but things I wanna keep under wraps for now.
Also here’s my prototypes from this year. BEYOND grateful and blessed that I was able to make my own dreams come true when it came to yoyo design, as well as the dreams of some friends I made along the way.
Very nice.
2Sick Endgame?
Nah, bimetal beanie😁
Had a play around with the overall shape of the cut monster!!
Diameter 57.2
Width 48
Weight 60ish grams

I don’t want to tear it apart, I want to put it together and throw it.
It’s a great design. I like the cuts and that it’s organic’y and a big boi but only 60g. You won’t please everyone it seems with one yo-yo, but I think it’s great!
Thank you
nice
It’s looking quite nice, now!
You might want to make the cuts in the cup all of a uniform length (though that is a painstaking thing to attempt), and I think the profile/rim shape needs a little refinement, but otherwise this looks very very close to done! The dimensions/mass look really appealing to me!
Thanks Mark. I’ll have a play with the profile rim , kind of what the rim to smoothly transition to the cuts. I made all the cuts on the cup all 1.5 mm thinking this maybe easier for machinist.
Thanks for the feedback really appreciate it.
Think the design is pretty much done just wanted to throw up a couple of renders of the full body.
Thanks again for guidance and your lovely feedback.
Love the profile, well done.
Looks so real, astonishing rendering details.
I second this. You make it look like an apple product photoshoot lol
