Wood is good

I ran across the other Alchemy, The Alchemy Project, a while back and promptly forgot about it. Last night I was reminded of their yo-yo by a fellow Alchemist and it being a slow news day, decided to post it. This is what they have to say under the heading of The Return of the yo-yo:

Forget Second Life, forget the Playstation and Nintendo Wi, don’t you ever wish we could sometimes go back to basics? At the Alchemy Project we decided to do just this and have created our very own yo yo for your pleasure.

Simply drop us an email or give us a ring and we’ll send you one out direct to your door!


Just a simple wooden yo-yo with a very nice intricate logo, simple effective, and best of all it comes back up. Since I haven't given my Playstation the attention it deserves lately, I should actually take them up on their offer.

"Wood is good" is a very-old saying when it comes to wooden yo-yos. Playability of modern ball-bearing models have long surpassed wooden yo-yos, but the feel of a wooden item in your hand has yet to be surpassed There is something magical about it - not playability, but rather feel.
