Well this is my first try at turning a yo-yo using the PSI kit and a spindle of South African Ebony. I think it turned out pretty nice all together. I used HUT Crystal coat and HUT wax bars. Let me know what you think.

Cool! Is it heavy enough to get smooth throws and long sleeps?

I have always thought I would like to turn a yo-yo, you have rekindled my intrest.
Good Job.

It sure is. The string needs to get used to being wrapped, but other than that it works pretty well. It's about 1.5 in diameter or so.

Awesome. When I get to the point of turning them, I wanna do them in acrylic and PR.

Yeah, my only fear on making it from that is when someone tries to walk the dog they will break its neck lol. I am sure I will do some for sure in PR or something, just afraid of it breaking with use.

I'll ask my brother-in-law Beer Boy about it. He's turned a few in acrylic, I believe.

Great yoyo. I've turned a couple three, two with the kits and one Yoyospin type. The are great fun, not only to turn but to play with also.
