    Penn and Teller review

    My wife and I were in Vegas last month. Based on recommendations from folks on this website we went and saw Mac King. He was wonderful and as expected a very talented magician and entertainer. After the show we met him and bought a book from him which he signed. I highly recommend him if...

    What are your favorite impromptu, gimmickless card tricks?

    I find my PK ring that matches my wedding ring is something a wear and can always do some great impromptu tricks. Silverware in restaurants, aluminum cans, and a special 50 cent piece I carry add to the craziness...

    MAGIC REVIEW: "Ninja Plus" by Matthew Garrett

    Thanks David, but I was referring to the linking rings, as you some are gimmicked with 'key' or other. Traditional rings have know form of key, it is all slight of hand when handling....I cannot be more specific without giving it away! Are these rings traditional or do they have some form of...

    MAGIC REVIEW: "Ninja Plus" by Matthew Garrett

    So after reading all of this I surmise that these rings are 'standard traditional rings' as far as the gimmick? No key or other device? But they have a routine with added props that help sell the trick....provided you practice and learn the routine well! I am trying to be careful here, I...

    Satisfactory Methods

    As a beginner I have spent many hour working on things like 'sponge balls' and did get real frustrated for a while. Then I got a DVD on sponge balls, Intro to Sponge Balls by Michael Dardant, and that changed everything for me. In that DVD Michael showed a real amazing method that I now use...

    Malini Egg Bag

    Thanks RealityOne.....I obviously need to study these books more. I was trying to learn from both routines but decided that I need to learn how to get the egg in the bag set up properly using that single finger to 'place' the egg. Let me study these routines again and maybe get back to you...

    Malini Egg Bag

    I have the Ken Brooke and Charlie Miller brochures. I purchased these from the same place I purchased the Bag and Eggs (thanks for the recommendations). As you know Mr. Brooks stresses learning one step at a time until you can do it without thinking. He doesn't talk specifically about how to...

    Malini Egg Bag

    Injuries

    My doctor always suggests soaking in ice water for 20 minutes (this is painful)...then let it warm completely up, then do it again. I would usually do this 3-4 times am and 3-4 times pm for the first 24 hours. After that it will feel much better and you can use heat pad or hot water bottle in...

    Chinese Mat & Egg

    As a kid in the early 1960’s I lived in a small mountain town in Colorado. I developed an interest in learning and performing magic tricks. It was not easy in those days to find and purchase tricks, but I was lucky in that my Grandparents lived in the ‘big’ city of Denver. I would spend a...
