I was acually about to say what about people that bought it of your site but i cant wait.
 
Awesome, I would definitely like to check the forum out.

Wayne I wanted to ask you directly. Is mercerized cotton okay?
 
Cool! Thanks.

Enjoyed the DVD a lot Wayne. I remember watching the first Thread video on your site and being like "dude, I wanna do that!" Great effect.

Hey Wayno, does the sleight method look different from the geek method? what are the angles like on the sleight method, since the sleight method is 100% safe can any type of thread be used?

Anybody with the DVD can answer that. To the spectator, the sleight method looks identical to the Geek method. The angles are fantastic, the only way a person would catch a flash would be if they were standing between you and your hand. Yes, any type of thread can be used for the sleight method.

Yes indeed - stay tuned for details as soon as more information is available. And major props to RZ for developing the system from scratch. Getting access to a protected forum requires no passwords and is 100% safe and secure.
 
Hi Wayne..Just wanna ask that is there any difference if I use polyester threads for the geek method rather than those cotton ones? Will it hurt more? I'm having some trouble finding some cotton threads in Singapore..So maybe guys in Singapore that got thread can tell me where can I find cotton thread? Kept getting polyester threads in sewing shops..
 
Wayne......aww never mind my question would expose the method....i guess i'll wait till the protected forum opens for me.

is it really bad to use polyester thread?

Yes. Don't use it! There are tiny small microscopic lilliputian wee little miniscule
pieces of nastiness in there, that can hurt your eye(s).

This is what Polyester thread looks like:

Now the 100% mercerized cotton:

Er, I hope this was not too off topic...
 
the thing is I want to perform this effect on friday for a show, but I can't find the cotton thread anywhere. It's just polyester thread that I see.

Well, its really up to you then, but I think you should follow Wayne's instruction; use 100% cotton thread. Rather wait for the right stuff, a magician should never be too hasty you know! ;)
