    Different settings one can perform magic

    Ya I thought I remembered someone saying that it was great to be able to leave kids with a trick they can do and penguin provided those. As for the sanitation, you are very correct. I have a medically complex son and we are VERY aware of germs. Every person that walks into our home must first...

    Doesn't penguin magic have some sort of program in place to support hospital magicians?

    Best deck production and deck to box?

    Sudden Deck is great, but only great in certain conditions. Not really the best investment for casual performances. One thing that is super fun tho is David Regal's Disposable Deck. Highly recommend that.

    Ask Alexander would be a fruitful resource for that.

    Different settings one can perform magic

    Ooo, it may be interesting to look at effects that are Tenyo on a larger scale. Like has anyone recreated thee principles to suit a stage effect (or are they based on a stage effect like ZigZag woman/cigarette) I would find that really interesting to learn about.

    Stage Magic is HARD!

    I love the intimacy of close up magic. I love being able to really see each person and make sure each one is equally engaged.

    Different settings one can perform magic

    It's semantics but I would separate: Close up walk around (think cocktail party or trade show and table hopping Busking or street show could be for a few surrounding your table or a show for a larger crowd. Street magic is closer to walk-around but involves wandering around accosting strangers

    Hummer floating card tips

    I hear you about the wax. Some really nice wax is actually beeswax. Just find a beeswax candle that is wrapped instead of solid. Like below. This is much thicker and works great. As Edward mentioned above, you really need to work it in well regardless of the wax you use. Or if you wear glasses...

    'Floating bills' who does it right?

    I dislike pretty much every floating bill effect save a couple. Far too obvious methods. Nearly any method using IT looks exactly like what it is. David Copperfield's Floating Rose performance does a nice job (with a napkin rather than a bill), and I also like Steve Fearson's floating cigarette...

    Hummer floating card tips

    Welcome to the forums! I remember I got this when I was quite young. I put it away for a few years, and pulled it out again and was able to figure it out. IT's a tad knacky, but nothing you won't pick up quickly. I would recommend that when you're learning and practicing, that you use a...

    How Do I Review Products on The Wire?

    You cannot review on a mobile view of the wire. I don't know if you can do a web view on iphone, but on Android browsers you just choose to view full site/desktop site. Then you can see the review area -it's just below the product description. And if you're review is published, you get 10 Elite...

    I think Sankey fooled Penn and Teller

    I suppose Jay was also trying to sell an effect, so it makes sense to that degree. After watching it, it loos like he's trying to just throw them off, but yes I think you're right. I bet if he didn't try to look dirty, they would have figured it out though too.

    For those who have participated in the 'Fake Reveal' contests

    Ha ha, just had to share this comment I got today: "You monster for ruining Jason England's latest effect even though this is all wrong. So everyone just buy the thing like I did..." Two things come to mind:

    Force From A Bag?

    I don't know specific references for the bag (but yes there are some nice options), however I believe that the product Vapr has a remote for smoke control.
