I will go to the shop and snap some yo-yo photos. Most of the stuff i do includes structural mods that make a modern low end yo-yo play like a high end advanced yo-yo. Lately i've been stock piling old Duncan Butterflies and Duncan Wheels on Ebay from the 60s, 70s and 80s and converting their fixed axle to a ball bearing transaxle and response system. here is a link to hold you over until I get Some good working project yo-yo pics. http://yoyowiki.org/wiki/Yo-yo_Modifications |
