Sponsors and Curators
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!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

From tpstore.shop-pro.jp:
"Unlike the ones normally used for yo-yo parts so that they can be used as shot glasses, they are safe to use as tableware and use expensive grade stainless steel.
You can measure 20 ml (about four teaspoons) up to the boundary between the inner vertical line and the angled part.
The parts are cleaned and sterilized with alcohol, but it is recommended to sterilize when using as a shot glass."
An exceptionally well-made and beautiful yo-yo, made even more unique with a 24K gold-plated finish. Manufactured out of food-grade stainless steel 316 so you can drink from it safely.
Released January 23, 2021. This unique yo-yo was initially available on the Turning Point website in Japan only, for about three weeks. In June, 2021 they were made vailable from yoyorewind.com Japan. And in April, 2021 yoyonest.com also sold this model but made it available with either a size A or size C ball bearing axle. They also sold an optional Shot Glass stand that screwed into the bottom of either halve to give the individual shot glass increased stability. From what I have been able to gather, there were supposedly five or less gold-plated versions of the 20 ml Shot Glass made.
Turning Point made an even smaller version of this yo-yo/beverage container: the stainless steel Shot Glass 5 ml.
