I was interested in trying to turn a yo-yo.... I've saw where you can buy a yo-yo kit with the bearings and you can buy the mandrel and bushings just like a pen.... I was woundering if anyone has tryed turning one of these kits or if anyone has made a complete yo-yo from scratch. Any info on this would be helpful on turning yo-yo's.... Thanks in advance!

With all of the Yo yo's around here I'm amazed that you haven't heard from someone that has made one. You may be breaking new ground here. I'm a true newbie to turning so I can't help much. I would think this would be somewhat similar to the concept of the ornaments we turned before Christmas. It should be a good project that isn't too complicated. I think the biggest challenge here would be trying to keep both halves symetrical.
