http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4isCpmQCEcw Watch in 480p. I decided to film my magic happenings. I know some of you may criticize my performance or, "Oh, you need better performance skills" or "I totally figured that out." I am looking for constructive help in any area, no negativity. Any...

Hey everyone. Quite a while back I purchased the Dan and Dave PDF Package available at store.dananddave.com. It contains a treasure trove of knowledge, and features 6 PDFs, 48 tricks, almost 200 pages, and includes authors like Syd Segal, JC Wagner, the Bucks themselves, Chris Kenner, Henok...

The Junto Session today on waynehouchin.com proved to be thought-provoking. Let me first pose a question that arose in my mind during the chat: Why are we so eager to prove ourselves to spectators? Consider doing uncalled-for sleights. Turning over a double then performing a KM move simply...

So this is the new top secret project. From the Dan and Dave forums: More on the homepage and in their store The backs look great. Knowing the Bucks, they handle well.

I found this thread on aging coins, but I am looking more for a resource on cleaning coins. I have 2 Kennedy half dollars and a Kennedy shell half, and they're just a bit grimy. After I shine them I may age them. How do you clean your coins? Is regular jewelry polish OK? Let me know. Ian

This thread concerns the safety of Daniel Garcia's smoke effect, known as Warning or No Smoking. I have his original Next notes, so I didn't buy Warning, but they're similar if not identical in method. How safe is it? I've heard a lot about its dangers but Danny himself says its safe. Who's...

Each of the suits on a deck of cards represents the four major pillars of the economy in the middle ages: heart represented the Church, spades represented the military, clubs represented agriculture, and diamonds represented the merchant class. The king of hearts is the only king without a...

Out of all the Vanishing Inc. downloads, which one would you recommend? Ian

Did anyone else notice this? http://www.theory11.com/1on1/ No bulletin about it. Hm. Ian

PIXEL by David Jade "From a deck of playing cards, a card is chosen at random and shuffled back in. Completely lost! A rubber band is wrapped around the deck and everything is placed on the table. Visually (with all eyes fixated on the deck) the selection leaps to the top, free from the...

This is the official bored thread. This basically means, when the forums are mostly dead and you still wanna talk, you can post here and call other people to your attention. You can arrange a Tinychat, talk about the latest Lee Asher release or question if buying cards from that shady gas...

Yeah. Rules are pretty simple - cards must be mixed face-down face-up, preferably shuffled. Must follow the usual Triumph plot, card turns face up, yadda yadda. No editing to affect the effect (redundancy!) and whether live or solo doesn't matter. Ian

Hey guys, I thought I'd share an effect of mine for the holiday season! I'm giving away a free PDF until mid-January. It is available on the home page of my site here. It is my Christmas gift to all of you, from my upcoming notes. HOSTAGE - Dribble Sandwich Imagine a spectator holding...

First of all, Wal-Mart is having a sale - two decks of Bicycle cards for the price of one! Great deal. Secondly, I recently purchased Anate by Dee Christopher and will perform it today. To contain my prediction - and this applies with any prediction effect - I'm going to use my red envelope...

http://devilsadvocateproductions.com/Play.html Is it still available? I know DAP redirects to DM's site, but this was up so... Any thoughts on the book itself? Ian

In today's cash-strapped world, what do you think? If you figure out an effect, do you have the right to perform it? Of course, one could make the comparison to laymen, saying that if they figure something out, then they can perform it. But as magicians, we have a respect for the art...

I'm looking to begin mentalism. I know, 13 Steps, which I plan on getting soon. However, I've come across Practical Hypnotism by Ed Wolff and wonder if it's any good. It's something that sounds interesting, because in order to make people believe magic, you must convince them, and hypnotism is...

Whenever I use my shell, it seems the coin gets stuck inside the shell. I have to pry it open and throw it around. This is too bad for me, as I just bought an effect that needs a shell. Won't say the name due to possible exposure. The shell is a 1999 Roy Kueppers expanded Kennedy half dollar...
