As promised, some better pictures with real daylight.

A huge thank you goes out to everyone who pre-ordered these yo-yo's and helped make this project possible.  I hope you all like them as much as I do.

They are here!  Here are a few quick pictures to satisfy the curiosity:

I will take better pictures when I have good lighting so expect more later.

I just received the anodized yo-yo's in the mail yesterday.  They look great and they feel amazing. The finish is perfectly smooth.  So needless to say, I didn't get much done last night after I opened the box but, you can trust me when I say that you will like these as I worked and worked them until my fingers literally bled. After I was satisfied that they all worked, I packed them back up and sent them to be engraved. 

 Something about this picture...I really like it.

Have I mentioned that they come with custom Dead Threads?  If you have never used one, check them out on Facebook.  They always have something interesting posted.

The first look of the anodizing!

Almost done...

Yes, the rumors are true.  We finally fixed the set up and were able to run full production. 

Now, on to anodizing!

Finally a prototype:  I still have lots of work to do on this but so far a great start.
