the 3rd choice sounds like my kind of yoyo, 43mm is a tad wide (i would say 41-42 mm is a good width for a full size throw) but i would really like to get my hands on one eventually

well, the friend im working with is just doing it for fun, so id imagine a 42mm one may come around.

also, when i say 1 of 1, im referring to the colors. the sizes will be varied and few, but there will be more than 1

thats the idea ZEKE!!! one yoyo that you choose the size of (or wait for) and have YOUR OWN custom 1 of 1 yoyo that takes 3 bearing sizes!!!

as i said before, it only gets crazier from here!!!

i just did the math and my estimate is small will be 62.5g
medium will be 65.5
large will be 67.8

these are just estimates, but my math should be pretty much dead on

new news. the Septopus project has just gotten even more ridiculous. the first 20 will be made with the battosai run (which will be as soon as the Sky Walkers sell out :) )

im making them all the same size, but have the SPRs for 4 different sized bearings (small, D, C, and ILYY/Oxy) and these will be made of delrin, BUT not every septopus will be Delrin!!!

Dylan and I have decided to make Delrin, Aluminum, Titanium, and Magnesium Septopi (the plural of septopus)

no CADs for this one, just yoyos when they get here :shock: :shock: :shock:

woah! that sounds awesome!!!

how will a delrin SPR work in a Titanium yoyo? seems to me like that will be the weakest part of the yoyo.

wow, This sounds totally awesome. If i can get up enough cash by the time these drop i'm in for a magnesium one. Oh, and i think the plural of septopus should be septopodes because it is derived from greek, not latin.
