First, i wanted to Create 4 longs parallel slots on each halve  and to dig 4 holes close to the bearing sit to let pass the light. Then, i had to align all the slots and the holes between the 2 halves in order to build a symetry effect

 

When the competizione has been finished, i had  something new to fix. It was too light to be playable. So i thought on wich yoyo i should use to create  the weight rims. I decide to pick up the stargazer Naoki offered me. I had the idea to work with the screw of the competizione, creating someting looking like a pit of light that will bring the light on the slots of the yoyo..  That's why i only dig a hole on the center of the rims.

 

 

In the end, the light effects expected was not as good as i wanted, but it works.

At least if i think it's all about my tools, i could not have done a better modd... it has been done with cheap and bad tools, and everybody could have done it... (exept for the rims u could not have done such a work without a lath.)

 

 

So my final words will be this one, "if u like to work on yoyos, not esspecially play, just try it, don't be afraid to waste hundred of euros, the most important is to take pleasure / Have fun ..."

ZeuS is designed by Alexandre VALIN

ZeuS is a concept that I have in mind for a long time.

The idea was to place the weight in 4 points, and to adjust those points according to the desired playability.
I called that afterward the ZS shape. Why?

Here is the sectional shot of the Zeus that emphasizes the ZS shape; we can clearly see the S shape on top. Imagine the other half, you’ll get the Z and you’ll see the ZS.

I annotated these 3 points, by considering the bearing system as the 4th point.
My idea was to move these points and to vary their diameter, in order to adjust the distribution of weight at best.After several questions and several designs, looking for the ideal repartition that will suit my style, ZeuS was born.

The proto is perfect for me, still extreme shape, extreme spin and what seems to be the most stable of our yoyos to this day . Contrary to what some people may think, this yoyo is not heavy, its 66 grams towards its volume, confers a sensation of lightness.

It is not said that the concept of the ZeuS will be the only one. The ZS collection?
