    Best forks for practicing metal bending?

    I'm in the States, but I order Next Day Gourmet "Dominion" forks for all my bending. They have a store on Amazon.com. Not sure of the shipping costs though for the UK. I buy 9 dozen at a time for $30 something.

    If you could have only one deck of cards...?

    For practicality, I'd have to agree with Bike Prestige. Best plastic deck I have seen. On an island, that is what you would want. Forgetting the elements, if I was just simply stranded by myself, a deck of Mirrors. Best cards I have ever handled, hands down. I would be perfectly content for...

    What's a Good Torn and Restored?

    d+M has an awesome one called Transtorn. It's a torn/restored/transposed card. In his book Collateral. Well worth it. Can be used effectively with $ too. Good reactions when you tear, restore, and transpose signatures on a borrowed bill. This does ruin cards though, meant to be giveaways at the end.

    Is this a good excuse for NOT palming?

    I use the Gambler's Cop every day. It is far more natural looking and requires less thinking than a palm. You just have to be worried about people from the side. From the front, no matter the size of your hands, it is invisible. If you can swap a palm for the cop, you have got it made. Learn it...

    Jerry's or Cents

    Unless you are really serious, don't get the Jerrys, and plainly and simply don't bother with White Cents. Not worth the money. If you are just collecting, then find them, but if you are getting them to perform, reconsider. WCs are going to be a wasted investment for performance, and Jerry's are...

    Tllusion Tribute Video

    Ugg... why did you just steal 3 minutes of my life? For garbage? Don't promote yourself this way. Don't try to be someone else. Don't think of your abilities quite so high.

    The Clipshift - Chad Nelson

    I still use it and love it. Criterion is still a big part of my normal routine. I am always vanishing or color changing with it. Yes, there was a huge hype with it, BUT the move is still amazing. When someone can do it well, it is unbelievable.

    What decks do you have?

    I have more than 150 decks. Too many to list. I am sure I am not alone in my group too.

    One Handed Pass

    It's likely not a real pass. There is one floating around that uses a double lift in the attempt to look like a one handed pass in mechanics grip.

    Ask: About the price of Jerry's Nuggets

    Why they are expansive? 1. They are "rare" and no longer made. Note the quotations. 2. They are made. by sheer chance, from materials that make them perform well for magicians and flourishers 3. They look cool on camera The main reason - HYPE. People talk these things up like orgasms in...

    I do own it, and NO. It is merely the coolest single concept to hit the magic world in a long time. No stooge involved. I don't see how you would even begin to think that.

    New deck?

    Sure looks like it. Can't be positive, but most likely.

    Looking for fellow magicians in Idaho

    Exactly what the thread title says. If you are out here, hit me up. I have only met one other magician since I have been out here.

    AM/PM Review

    This all sounds tight. Wish I could have had it sooner, I have a closeup gig this evening. Practical, killer effects with real world props are just what I need and try to use.

    Alvo Stockmans PostMentalism question

    Say you wanted to predict the winner of the Super Bowl. A couple hours before, you make a prediction, put it in an envelope, address it, and give it to your spec to put in a mail drop. The Super Bowl happens, and you just smile. A couple days later (however long it takes the post office...

    What is this Move?

    His fingers are not positioned in any way to cause that to happen. They are positioned to catch a card. Reversed.

    Deck of Cards in Bottle

    I just put together one without reading any methods of how to do it with a Jones Soda bottle and a deck of Mini-Bikes. There is NO room to move stuff around even though it is a mini-deck, the JS bottle is rather small. It took me a couple hours. It will take me a little longer next time, as I...
