heat up the coin

when i first tried to bend a coin i had a really hard time since euros are thicker than american coins. What worked for me was to heat up the coin with a lighter so it became easier to bend . Though i still havent figured the best way to bend it without leaving any kind of marks.

To bend a coin without leaving marks wrap it with something say a card a piece of card board just something to protect the coin or use DG excuse

" My Fingernails are made of steel."

or accually go out and by a coin bender

thanks for the advice. ithink i will stick with "my fingernails are made of steel" though .

Us have to use pliers to bend a coin, and try to wrap it in a card. Also you could borrow a quarter, fingerpalm the bent coin, do a switch, put the bent coin in there hand and have them close their hand really tight and pretend to use psychokinesis to bend the coin.

C. Michaels · Nov 17, 2008

if your into card magic, a good ambitious card routine, two card monte, or even daniel madison's 'heritage' is a good one to try. ive done 'heritage' several times to large tables of people, and the reactions are incredible. // as far as my favorite ones go:

1. Heritage
2. Angels (taught on the UltraGaff DVD)
3. Two Card Monte
4. Bruised
5. (Soon to be) Thread

those are the 5 (well 4 for now) that i do no matter what. in between ill throw in some mentalism, and some sponge ball routines too.

ACR
Subway
Hoffzy Osbourne-working on it.

i do magic at school all the time. i found the best and most angleproof to be

hand to mouth (well, hell, why would angles affect that, the misdirection is so good)
any sandwich effects ( i personally do either royale with cheese or jokers find it)
card to pocket or card to wallet
almost embarrassing
and ambitious card ( which may be cliche but is totally awesome)
