    Is worth it?

    I ask myself two questions: Will I use this? Can I afford it? If yes, then it's probably worth it. In this state of where magic is at, $10 is not unreasonable for an effect if it's something you will use (or teaches you something that you will use later). Is it the best deal ever? No, (a free...

    New Site Finally Here?

    And I have to add, that one of the reasons I've always stuck around is that T11 has always operated and conducted itself with integrity and professionalism. With many chances to respond to people slandering T11 their responses have always been with clarity, confidence, integrity and as...

    Restaurant Magic

    You need to approach the restaurant and sell yourself to them. Convince them that you can help them make money! (Lots of threads on this with some Google searching!) However there are a couple of other ways. One is to know the manager/owner. As most circumstances, who you know is so important...

    Restaurant Magic

    Yes, basically you are there to help the waiting times feel shorter. So people waiting for food, or those waiting to be seated are great targets.

    New Theory11 Website Layout: Thoughts?

    Looks awesome on mobile! I have a large monitor at work, and everything on the site is ginormous on it. But aside from the size 18-20 font on desktop, the look is really nice.

    Today was pretty exciting. Story and a question.

    That's super fun! I remember seeing my first professional magician live. I remember when I saw David Blaine's first special on TV. Magician's raged because he was doing the same tricks as many other magicians. Personally I, like you, find that encouraging. As far as skill goes, many working...

    Sankey Magic

    Great thoughts above. I wasn't happy with Anytime Anywhere. I use paperclipped every gig. I have the paperclipped card in a mini briefcase that I hand out (people love the mystery of what's in the case!), then I introduce a deck of cards, have one selected and signed. I 'teach them' how to cheat...

    Can't grip cards.

    A light product is best as it won't come off on your cards as much and wreck them like a regular lotion would. I use SortKwik. It's designed for people who handle paper and don't want to we their fingers all the time. But there are a bunch of other products out there that will help.

    Floating cigarette

    If you are using the Fearson Hookup, that will take your hummer card to a whole new level. The spinning card can go so far from you, down to the ground and back all the way up to you hand or mouth. Pretty wonderful hookup.

    Taking care of a TT?

    Heh, keep it out of your back jeans pocket. The blue from the denim in a back pocket comes off on the TT.

    Which deck is more valuable? rare?worth buying?

    I have no idea the quantities produced, but it's all about demand. Price is a good indicator of that demand. Listings on Ebay, put them in the order of Ltd, Propoganda, White Lions. However these are all listings, but no idea what they are actually selling for - likely a bit less.

    Website Review

    I like the layout. I have a wix site and the SEO has been really good. As you get more pictures & video I'm sure it will fill out, but it's a good start. Your quotes should say who said them (company name even) as a way to keep focus of the site. By focus I mean your target audience. Pick a...

    Ring into sealed pack

    There are a lot of ways to accomplish this really. Nesting boxes or a lippencot box would help. Bobo's modern coin magic has a beautiful piece in it where a ring vanishes and appears inside a match box, wrapped in a ball of yarn, which has been sitting in a wine glass and covered by a silk the...
