If you can’t find an eraser that fits the bill, you can make the base of your beyblade out of white styrofoam. Find a flat piece of thick white styrofoam. Several pieces of cardboard glued together will also do the job. You can even use recycled toilet paper or shipping paper in a similar way.
To make a perfectly round circle, set a small water glass, candle holder or another small round-bottomed object on top of the beyblade base. Use a pencil to trace around the object. Cut out the circle with your scissors or a knife - whichever is more appropriate for the base you’re using.
If your beyblade wobbles or falls over, take a look at the pin and make sure it’s right in the center of the base. If you don’t want to use a pushpin, try using a nail or screw. Push it straight through the center of the base.
Cut out some spike-shaped cardboard pieces and glue them around the edges of your beyblade base. Shape the spikes like shark fins to help the beyblade spin faster. Use permanent markers to color the beybade in strong colors like black and red or green and orange. Draw a design on the beyblade that shows it’s meant for attack - a dragon’s head is the popular choice. If you want your beyblade to attack, use a flat tip like the back of pen.
Draw a ring around the edge of the beyblade base. Use permanent markers to color the beybade in neutralizing colors like blue and green. Draw a design on the beyblade that represents defense. A killer whale or the face of a fighter are popular choices. If you want your beyblade to defend, use a rounded tip. A pushpin is enough for the job.
Draw swirls around the base that look like gusts of wind. Use silver and gold paint pens to color in the base. Draw a design to represent stamina, like a fiery flame. If you want your beyblade to outstand other beys, try using a conical tip. You can either find a conical tip or you can carve it out of something!
Draw a pattern that merges all the beyblade powers - attack, defense and stamina. Use several different colors to show that the balance beyblade has many good qualities. Draw a design to represent balance, like a face with two sides or a ying and yang. If you find your beyblade is missing something from the above types, try making that type with your tip.
