David Regal released one. I bought it at his lecture, but never tried it.

51 Card Deck

Just ignore them and keep going. However the fact that asked the question suggests that there is some problem with the structure of the trick that occurred before the question. This may not be a trick suitable for this audience or you may be unnecessarily presenting it as a challenge to be...

If you do stack work then check out In Order to Amaze by Pit Hartling.

Nice, I think I might try the Testors sometime. What do you think they used on the commercial deck back in the 80s? It was probably the easiest sale to make in the magic shop I worked at.

How many cards do you think that would that coat? 400 ml is a lot, but so is 52 cards. Sounds intriguing though, depending on how long it would last me.

And eternally guarded by the creature.

If I do any hinging I press down the corner with my left thumb and lift with my right index finger. I mainly rotate my left wrist instead of hinging too much, but I do a bit. I don't know if this is 'right' or not. Do whatever looks best.

I was at an Asi Wind lecture and he did something along these lines. When was asked how it was done, he said Expert Card Technique. I'm pretty sure he meant the title of the book, but either way works. Ultima Thule Location in chapter 9 is actually really close to everything you are looking...

I doubt it has a name. It's just something you can do when you learn the proper techniques. Pick up Expert Card Technique or start working through the Card College books. Search the forums for how to get started in card magic. It's best to learn from the beginning, but these techniques will...

Giraffes just blow my mind.

I haven't seen the Card College video, but the books are great. I would expect that Vol 1 and 2 of the books with the video is the best way to get into card magic beyond the self working. I also second the recommendation above for the Jason Englund videos. They come either singly or in...

Steamboats. I love the smooth finish and borderless. If only they were in traditional cut...

Leather will do that for silver coins, not sure about copper but it would be worth a try with a test coin. It should either turn it brown or green, I'm just not sure which. Put it in a wallet and flip it over once in a while.

For practice I use decks for mostly just one thing. I write inside the lid what the deck will be used for and the date I opened it. For instance, I will mainly practice tabled faros with one deck, bottom deals with another and maybe culling with a third. Sometimes when a deck wears out for...

Re For the most part you answered your own questions. Regarding Calling the Cards: Yes you are cutting the trick short, but this shouldn't effect much. Just try to minimize any references to how many cards you'll be working with. If they point to it the first time you have performed a...

If I'm practicing a lot I can go through 2 decks a week. I rotate between 4 decks and once a deck is 2 weeks old it's trash. So, half a week of use per deck. Richard Turner said he had a 3 pack a day habit. Faros can munch the edges faster until you get the hang of it. It all depends what...
