 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

"A fixed axle, adjustable gap yoyo that sleeps (almost) forever! The patented friction system allows for long sleep times, superb control, and extended string life."
• Wood and brass construction with your choice of material and finish (the model in this exhibit is made of mahogany with a natural finish (grain filled and three coats of polyurethane).
• Balanced and matched halves.
• Adjustable gap.
• Handmade.
• Axle is made from piano wire that is only 2mm (.078") diameter. By far the thinnest axle of any yo-yo made. This uncommon size translates to exceptionally long spin times for a fixed axle yo-yo.
This yo-yo has solid identification on one halve (name of business, name of yo-yo, and where it was made) and exquisite craftsmanship overall.
Collected directly from John McAvoy, the yo-yo's creator and inventor, March 12, 2001.
This yo-yo is covered by U.S. patents 5,254,027 (October, 1993), and 5,389,029 (February, 1995).
Original retail price: $42 US. | |
