This was a fast and fun project. I was very hesitant on trying to make a yoyo. I had an idea of how I was going to attempt it and then I watched a few videos. I saw a lot of complicated ways of making a yoyo and started second guessing my design.
Luckily my wood turners club was actually doing a virtual demo on making a yoyo. It was just as complicated as many of the previous videos on YouTube. I almost scrapped the idea and then thought, what the heck. Worst case, the video will be entertaining.
Usually after I finish a project, and during the editing process, search for music that represents the area the wood is from or a specific title/lyric that has something to do with the end result. Early on, as I was turning I kept laughing at the way I was saying Yo-Yo… Yo Yo YO! LOL
It was apparent I was going to look for some old school hip-hop rap combo and just couldn’t find anything. You know the end result, but it was funny thinking I could “attempt” to even conceive something remotely resembling rap. Then again… it might be hilarious to hear me try. So now you know.
Fun project, highly recommend.
