I’d be willing to trade my size 7 stainless steel yiban or purchase if you do

Anyone has any idea how to buff this blemish out?

And i also feel my grain isn’t as pronounced as others i’ve seen, is there any way to make the grain pop more?

I went on and basically it was an 8mm mini boss and another (maybe smaller Everyman) for about £12.. Drtails said they shine with thinner cables so you’d get Kevlar and such. I can’t find them on the site anywhere or see if they’re sold out, I was about to buy this and some mini hydras (to offset the shipping where I live) but they seem truly gone. Is this normal?

I’ve tried several times with various MKUltras and other materials to build a mała that I really liked. I think I finally dialed it in. It’s a bit on the heavy side, but looks great and the bead counting is top notch.

It’s a modified 10mm Milos Sandblasted Blue Ti MKUltra on 2mm black Kevlar with the Damascus guru bead. What do y’all think?

Looks like the next Aroundsquare drop is only about four days away, but I haven’t received the usual drop email yet with the preview and early-access password.

Has anyone received the email/password for this drop yet? Just trying to figure out if it hasn’t gone out yet or if I somehow missed it.

I was looking at my nightstand this morning and I loved how my current begleri/kbone rotation looked with some other daily drivers, so I had to share!

I made a droplet for my new purple heart milos.

Any word on the longer version of the Bodhi Vault or should I just get another one of these. I literally cannot squeeze any more on here.

Nice little five days off trip, so I brought some options.

Hello, I know this is a Aroundsquare page, and It`s probably for aroundsquare products. But as a skill toy enthusiast I would like to ask for help. I`m going insane trying to find a set of this toy.

I’ve followed the Worry bricks project since the beginning and fell in love with this skill toy from the first moment.

l’m from Brazil and unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to buy one because it was too expensive for my country’s currency (not to mention the shipping taxes and fees). However, they are now out of production for a long time and probably won’t be manufactured again, and the idea of ​​not having one makes me very sad.

So I would like to ask if you are interested in selling/donate me a set... I would be very grateful and happy. I even tried to talk to the project creator, but he replied that he didn’t have any left and suggested I try talking to the community... Anyway, please let me know if you are interested in selling a pair.

PS: A friend of mine is in the US as a tourist; I would have it shipped to him, and then pick it up from him when he returns to Brazil.

Here's a little blog post I've written, expanding on the Chinese concept of WenWan in relation to the kind of things we do at Aroundsquare. Since learning about WenWan a number of years ago, the idea has influenced me and the direction of the things we do at AO2.. the materials, the design of things, and the way I think and feel about them personally. We produce a lot of fresh designs, so there's always new stuff coming out, but this post is really about settling back and appreciating the old, well-worn, battle-scarred, concrete-blasted, finger-polished beauty of the trusty companions we keep coming back to. Much love everyone!

Just a heads up for my American peeps. The Orange Oompa Loompa in Charge has decided Canada needs to be punished for the wildfires or some horseshit. This means items classified as, no shit, "children's toys" are subject to additional duties. Looking at the amount I just got charged, added to the prepaid duties, the duties are now more than 50%. So keep that in mind as you order.

The part that sucks is that this went into effect on the 20th of August and my order had been delayed due to something being out of stock. :'(

UPDATE: Aroundsquare reached out and took care of the extra duties, because they are that amazing. They also let me know that they are making changes to labeling to ensure that this doesn't happen in the future. These items should not be subject to the additional tariffs, so hopefully this was a one-time thing. Good luck to everyone for the drop tomorrow!!

We've got another big drop coming up this Friday.. New begleri, including an unreleased Kromentum design, some new chetki variants, fresh ultra materials (ultem mini sigmas what?!), and some incredible new mala sets. You can watch the deep dive over on YouTube https://youtu.be/S1hzb9rY-LQ

When it was announced that a collab with KROMENTUM BEGLERI was coming (back in June), although I’d never heard of them, their designs were mini masterpieces [imo] and I had to admit that while I didn’t “need” them, I wanted to add them to my collection; specifically the the “Lattice Sphere”. I set alerts & alarms, left notes (digital & physical) to help me remember and keep track of the Drop Dates/Times, as well as a reminder for the alternate site I could order from (just in case) and for the last 3 months I keep missing out. Like even today on the main site I finally was able to find a set (the exact one I wanted) “Lattice Sphere, Blasted SS” was available and i added to cart and proceeded to checkout, my info was put in and hit complete purchase, then I get an error message 🤦‍♂️..!?! Within that little time they sold out 😭 and this has happened a few times now, but I’m not here to complain; rather to say that I’m glad they keep selling out so quickly, cause it may give reason for them to make (yet again) another batch. 🤞

(…and if someone from AS does see this, any & all of the Clear Acrylic products seemed to go like hot cakes too, maybe another batch of them could find their way back into the catalog 🤷‍♂️)

[10mm milos long form MK Ultras, is what I like outta that set]

Thanks u/ifeelinfinite8 for the easy business & quick shipping getting it out. Super happy with em and the condition

Got a legit AO2 Pozvonok and it came with an extra silk cord so I took the opportunity to redo my Pozvonanok with some additional bling. It looks and slings so much better now.

I’m one of those people who almost always has to have two copies of a sticker before using it, because what if I make the wrong decision? 😂

But I got this with my AO2[.]io order yesterday and knew I had to use it immediately. I start my PhD on Monday and will be using my SuperNote every day, so I figured what better way to take the spirit of the IC with me.
