The Milk is a machined Delrin yo-yo made by Paul Yath. The initial run was released March of 2007. This yo-yo is not a limited run; it will stay in production, to be sold to the public. The Milk earned its name due to its distinctive color. It also is made out of Delrin because Delrin is smoother than the normal plastic that is injected in yo-yos such as the YoYoJam Lyn Fury, allowing for better grinds.
The price, and the fact that it will stay in production, is proving popular. Since the yo-yo is solid Delrin, there is a washer inside where the axle is screwed in is a piece of metal to ensure your yo-yo lasts longer so to not be Delrin rubbing against metal. Another amazing thing about this yo-yo is that it uses interchangeable SPRs. Buzz-on still uses SPR but Paul's are his own kind of SPR.
In early July, 2007, the 2nd run of The Milk has released to the market. Unfortunately, number of products has vibration and wobbles due to the adjustment of the weight distribution. However, these problems could be fixed by centering the axle, which could also be time consuming. Also particularly good for minimizing vibration in a 2nd run Milk is the addition of a KonKave bearing by Dif-e-Yo.
