The images above are the first drafts of our chosen yo-yo theme: The Bitcoin Yo-Yo!
A couple of details:
- The yo-yo will be comprised of four parts, all injection molded
- The color scheme will be black and gold
The Yo-Yos will be held with a casing made through thermoforming. The details and design for that component are still TBD.
Side 1: Bitcoin logo
The Bitcoin logo will be extruded and integrated as part of the dome, thus, it will be injection molded as one in the gold color. The non-extruded area will then be filled with a black snap-on filling. Finally, there will be a gold colored rim.
Side 2: Bitcoin stock
This side of the the yo-yo will have the tracing of the Bitcoin stock at the moment. The lines representing the stock will have a channel in which a liquid with gold glitter (like that in snow globes) will be inserted and will be able to move around freely within the channel.
Describe the parts of the yo-yo- what parts snap together, what's extruded
Our approach and techniques we envision utilizing are: thermoforming, injection molding, water jet, etc.
