The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!

Soul Fuel Skill Toys began in May, 2017 and is India's first skill toy company. Their freshman yo-yo offering included three models.
A variation on their "Archaic", the model in this exhibit is the "Tectona". A fixed axle, take-apart design handmade from a single five foot block of the highest quality imported Tanzanian Teak wood. The initial block of wood is turned on a traditional Indian lathe. Then, each yo-yo halve is machined on a manual lathe. The halves are sanded by hand and polished with a custom wax polish that consists of beeswax and three natural oils. The polish not only protects and beautifies the teak wood, it also imparts a pleasing fragrance. A beautiful, balanced yo-yo. Each halve on this model loosely resembles the halves on a Jack Russell Coke yo-yo that has the bulge on the sides. However, in this case, the bulge is reversed.
Each yo-yo came with a handmade, water resistant laminated jute bag, two strings, Soul Fuel stickers, and an extra axle. | |
