A fascinating and entertaining yo-yo (yoyo) toy that can keep a child and almost every adult busy for a long time. The charm of this thing is in its simplicity. There are many different styles of yo-yo playing today. There are both their own champions and their champions. In the CIS, this invention was also sensational.

The principle of operation of the miracle bouncy in his form. Newtonian force and nothing else. Based on the postulates of the theory of universal attraction, the main thing for a toy is a correctly selected counterweight. The second issue is the ideal of the round shape, the elasticity of the thread, its tensile strength, and the strength of the integral structure.
In fact, making a yo-yo is not difficult. The toy has a lot in common with a Soviet-style spool of thread. But her wings are slightly wider. And here she is the number one idea.
In order to make it, you can use a wooden thread spool. Circles of equal diameter must be glued to the fronts of the coil. It is better if they have sides bent inward. Beforehand, it is worth equipping your yo-yo with a counterweight. A nail or other heavy metal rod hammered into the center of the coil will play this role perfectly. It is very important that the load is distributed evenly and in the center, this is another reason why the coil will fit perfectly.
You can make circles with sides from tin cans. Their edges are easy to deform and bend. In addition, they will add a special courtyard charm to the toy. Alternatively, plastic plates, bottle caps and other creative materials can also serve.
The second interesting option for crafts is wheels. To make it comfortable and heavy enough, you can use plastic casters or skate wheels. It is easy to connect two such wheels, due to the presence of industrial threads. The only negative is that the toy can turn out to be heavy and traumatic. However, like any of them.
Ideas for implementation can be found in the building arsenal and in the toy store. The main thing is to be careful and find parts that would meet the needs of the toy.
