    Tissue box (Playing card sculpture)

    Wow! That looks sweet! Wouldn't it have been easier to just put the playing cards around the box, taping them together from the backs, and cover 5 sides (leave the top)? Then, you could just take the box out, and free hand the top. Same result, less time spent. Also, you know all those duct...

    injested vapr

    Continuing on this, I have asthma, so should I use VAPR? I believe its not actual smoke, correct? If it is actual smoke, is there any alternative? I hope your ok :)

    Hand Sanitizer

    I wash my hands before practicing with a clean, usable deck whenever possible. However, I almost never get that opportunity while performing. I started using hand sanitizers and a tissue to clean my hands prior to performing, to keep the cards clean and usable. I feel like its been working, but...

    Creating & Designing Playing Cards

    Well, I've never designed my own cards, but I've done some research on it. I believe people use makeplayingcards.com to make prototypes. They can make the designs themselves using photoshop, gimp, or some other 2-d editing/designing software, or you can draw them yourselves (or hire a cheap...

    Integrity of Using Effects You Figure Out

    While these are all useful, I'm more concerned about this question: A common effect everyone uses is the subject. I see it. I'm playing around one day and I figure out how it is done. Am I allowed to now use it personally, just for myself and performing for laymen? And the big Idea is, can I...

    How to throw cards

    Well, in the context of the top shot/Hot shot, You could include a Boomerang, a Flicker Shot, a regular hand shot (? a Flicker Shot without the Flicker), the Airbender, and that crazy helicopter thing Cardists do when they throw it around them in a perfect circle landing it back on the deck (I...

    Naked Coin Magic!

    When you say I'd love to hear your thoughts, I think you may have physically heard how loud I mentally screamed in wonder. You can show your hands front and back at any time :o That blew my mind if it is that clean.

    "Exposure" and Usage of Gimmicks/Gimmicking

    Thanks! The only reason I'm reluctant to put it out there is because the Blake Vogt DVD is already about it, and I don't want to take away from him.

    Integrity of Using Effects You Figure Out

    I can get legal issues by doing a card trick to spectators? Because I'm not talking about selling or "exposing" here.

    Integrity of Using Effects You Figure Out

    Oh. I had never known about Panic before. However, I just watched Aaron's trailer, and it seems like a slightly different effect. The first video is Just Rick Lax showing some things you can do with the USPCC Gaff deck from Penguin Magic, so I'm assuming he put it into a similar effect...

    Tally Ho cards - deck of single card

    How to throw cards

    First off, I love the Gambit Picture just thrown in there. Second off, there is a way to throw multiple cards accurately. You chuck the whole deck across the room ;)

    How to throw cards

    I learned from YouTube (sorry to anyone who gets angry, but its the 2nd decade of the 21st century). I've been throwing cards for about a year (I'm not that good though ;) ), but I found 3 or 4 different ways from YouTube alone. Here are the most helpful different methods, the videos were made...

    Which Deck to get?

    Everything these guys have said is true. If you are specifically asking which deck is better for you, I can give you some specs to help you decide; Smoke and Mirrors: Thick (Aristocrat style?) Stock (I believe, don't quote me on it) Looks Standard enough to pass as a regular deck. Standard Pips...

    Integrity of Using Effects You Figure Out

    Well of course. But what I am really after are those effects that everyone does, but few people know who made it. Take, for example, the trick I was talking about earlier. Its the one where you pretend to pull back on the cards, showing that their are multiple, but when you push them back up...

    Integrity of Using Effects You Figure Out

    Well yeah that's what I mean. Is it ok to figure out an effect and work on it. Though I would generally stray away from using an effect straight up, espescially if its one I saw ad figured out.

    About Time.

    The agree with what you guys have said, but their is one thing. Sometimes, it is definitely ok to practice a move you have mastered, while watching TV, or doing something else. Take a palm for example. I'm not gonna sit there for 20 minutes watching my hand look normal. I'm gonna go on Netflix...
