Here's a quick video featuring my take on the classic Coins Across plot. In my version, three borrowed coins, initialled by three different people, travel from hand to hand. There are no gimmicks and my method is almost completely impromptu after a one-time set up. The coins may also be...

Here's a new video where I teach a free effect! It's called Fork You, and it's a cool little offbeat moment for when you're in a restaurant with a friend. I hope you enjoy it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aujmsbTCK44 Michael Kras

I now have a sealed and cellophaned first edition Black Ghost Deck on my hands. I know these are rare, but what sort of value would be placed on them now? I've heard of decks going for nearly $500 on eBay, but does anyone know a legitimate, approximate value for a deck?

Hey everyone! So, I've been testing and working on the routine you'll see in this video... it's an act I've designed for stage performance around Wayne Houchin's "French Kiss" transposition. I think it has plenty of potential and I'd love to hear what you think of it, what you think it needs...

Hey everyone! I've made a short video featuring a free mentalism effect of mine! Why? Just as a small Christmas gift from me to you! I hope you enjoy it and get some use out of it, I think it's a nice little piece of close-up mentalism. I'd love to hear what you think of it too...

Here's a short video of my Impromptu Invisible Ignition, or "III" for short. This is something I've been using for about 3 years and it's a great, effective way of invisibly lighting flash paper with one hand and no gimmicks. It is based on an effect I read in an old issue of The Linking Ring...

I love playing with ideas for colour changes, and here's one that struck my fancy. I've been having fun with it lately, as it's got a nice visual quality and a breezy handling. I'd love to hear what you think of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdsGGXXGBJU Michael

There has been a lot of buzz about this project recently. Many Sankey fans were disappointed with Jay's recent release 'Bending The Real', which I actually liked for what it was, so I'm sure there are quite a few people who are a bit cautious about hitting the Add To Cart button on this one. I'm...

Class leads to boredom. Boredom leads to jazzing. Jazzing leads to Youtube videos. Here's a short clip of me messing around with a pen and coin, including an idea of Rune Klan's. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_tp2j1tgAM

Here's an effect I've been working on... my take on the Sandwich plot. I'm particularly fond of it because of how clean and fair it is in appearance. It's still in development but I've been using it pretty frequently. I would love to hear your thoughts on it...

Hey guys! So for a while, I've been obsessed with trying to come up with methods for organic card transpositions... as in, transpositions using only two cards with no dummy cards, pseudo mates, duplicates, etc. Here's one of my favourites. Just an idea right now but I hope you like it...
