Hey everyone! I know it's been awhile but I have taken all of your pointers into consideration and have put out the final version of my Doubting Thomas project. I have added more content such as string through the hand(thanks to a suggestion by Brett Hurley) and an invisible deck plot with a...

Thanks for sharing these Josh! They are all really great ideas. Hopefully someone will come up with a good method of performing them. I really like the idea of levitating water and then drinking it.

It was $49.95 I believe.

I'm not sure where I would fit this in my routine but for youtube videos this looks like a killer effect. I could easily see fitting this in a montage of cool flourishes and card tricks and people being amazed at it. Plus it would be fun to do randomly around a large group of people who aren't...

Actually the advice from the forum really helped. It made me realize I didn't communicate what the trick was well enough because everyone that it was object through the hand. Because of the advice you guys gave me, I went back and shot additional tutorials on what Doubting Thomas can do such as...

That sounds really cool! I can see a big reaction from an audience during a stage show using that effect. I believe Collins Key once did something similar to that using Nick Cannon's watch. It was pretty cool.

Being a student myself, my main goal for the next couple of months is to stay on top of my classes. The closer I get to graduation, the closer I get to being able to practice magic more. As far as magic goes, my goal is to get my routine for my stage show down to where it is practically...

Hey everyone! Just wanted to gather some community opinions on some really cool magic tricks. I know it's really hard to pick just one but I'll give it a shot. My favorite magic trick that I have ever seen is Ladybug by Paul Harris. I think that effect is one of the best looking tricks around...

I would look for magic that is specifically marketed towards "beginners" in magic. They provide a pretty solid base on getting a handful of tricks down and from there you can develop your own style and expand. Best of luck to you!

You would be surprised at how much knowledge of magic tricks Josh Burch has. The man is a walking encyclopedia of magic.

Hello davebarr98! First off I would just like to say good luck with your talent show and thank you for representing the performing art of magic at the venue. As far as stage magic goes, I try not to do anything that really falls under the brand of "cardistry". Not that there is anything wrong...

Doubting Thomas is fully customizable to be used however you wish it to be used. I'm putting it out there as kind of here is the tools now go build something with it. Coin through hands, Invisible Decks, and vanishes are all my artwork but I'm interested in seeing what others can create with it...

Brett Hurley, thank you for replying to the thread. Don't discredit yourself for being a fellow rookie. I value your input a lot more than what you would think. Oh man! How did I not think of this before? String through the hand that they can pull?!! Yes of course that can be done with Doubting...

Best of luck with your endeavors! To answer your questions, Spider Pen Pro can be done with a borrowed bill, you end clean, and I can't spoil the performance obviously. It's about $100 but I don't regret a single penny. Not too familiar with "Cloud Money". Once I bought Spider Pen Pro I didn't...

I'm not quite sure what you are looking for Brett but my favorite floating bill effect is Yigal Mesika's Spider Pen Pro. Makes spectator's flip out! It's a little bit more on the costlier side though.

Hello Rev! Thank you so much for replying to the thread and giving me feedback. I responded to some of your concerns but unfortunately I'm new to this forum and don't know how to show them as quotes so I will just bold all my statements and leave quotes on yours. I appreciate all feedback and...

Hello Josh Burch and thank you so much for taking the time to view my content and give me feedback! I'll definitely check out all the recommendations that you gave me. As far as my claim on innovation in my method, without giving too much away for obvious reasons, I believe it is innovative...

Hello everyone! My name is Tyler Scott and I've been doing magic for about a year now. This is the first trick I have ever invented and it is called Doubting Thomas. You show your hands empty at the beginning and end of the trick and they are fully examinable. The beautiful part is that the...
