    Cards that buckle/How to unbuckle cards

    I used to have a card clip back in the day. I need to get another one. I also used to use the trick of putting books/weight on the cards. But yeah, it seems like if I leave a deck of cards out overnight then they buckle. I do live in Michigan and it's literally like -10 degrees outside. I also...

    Cards that buckle/How to unbuckle cards

    I have cards that buckle all the time. Maybe it is the heat in my room cause I have a space heater. (I live in Michigan and it gets -20 out here) So sue me lol. How do I keep cards from buckling? How do you unbuckle cards if they are buckled? -Blake

    Trading Magic?

    Hey, guys. So I have been thinking lately, do any of you guys trade magic? Or know people that do? It is just that I have a lot of my old magic props back from when I was a kid and first got into magic. I wanted to do stage magic at first but as the years went by I stayed steady with close up...

    Fully metal appearing canes

    I honestly have no clue because I don't do cane magic. I did when I was younger though, I have a lot of stage props. I also have an all metal cane. It is pretty old and worn, but do you want it? I would be glad to gift it to you.

    Magic for kids. I need a little help.

    God, sober Blake is embarrassed by kinda-sorta-really-tipsy Blake haha. I definitely called you guys stupid last night and I very much am sorry for that. I got too much in my feels about a damn magic kit lol. I think I got in my feels because a magic kit was what got me into magic, which...

    Magic for kids. I need a little help.

    You guys are stupid. He is 8. Get him a magic kit and if he doesn't like it? You can move onto another art. Good luck lol.

    Magic for kids. I need a little help.

    That's what I'm saying. Are the kits amazing? No. Hell no. They're cheap, use plastic, etc. But the kid is 8 years old and he wants to learn magic. Why not start him out on training wheels? The kits are god for kids. That's why they say ages 6-12 or something like that. It'd be good for him.

    Where to sell my Magic stuff!?

    This thread was made almost 5 years ago. Anyway. I think that reselling magic isn't a bad thing. It helps newcomers and what not.. Umm.. yeah. This is an old thread.

    52 vs 9ofC

    I agree with that. And I am kind of mad at myself for even comparing the two. Madison's "MADISONIST" Is a "club" that you can buy your way into. To be honest, I think that is why he is doing it. Ian Frisch has his new book coming, Magic Is Dead and there is some hype on this 52 Club and what...

    Magic for kids. I need a little help.

    Mark Wilson's guide to magic was one of my first books. It's awesome. Super easy effects, great instructions/illustrations which mean it is super easy to learn. But! Why not a Fantasma magic kit? After I saw an old guy vanish a cigarette in front of my eyes when I was 10 years old, I was...

    52 vs 9ofC

    I totally agree with that. My bad, I wasn't trying to come off as a "Which should I join?" kind of thread. I guess I was just asking what you guys thought about the clubs, the ideas of them, etc. I would be lying if I said that I don't think it would be cool to be part of some "secret" magicians...

    52 vs 9ofC

    So, I might get yelled at for bringing this up. But it's easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. I'm sure most, if not all, of us know about the 52 club. How Madison was part of it and now he's branching off and making his own "Madisonist" club because he didn't really like...

    Back At It.

    Thanks for the responses, guys! Yeah, I am just going to search through T11 and see what catches my eye. I haven't logged on here in years. It is crazy how far they have come from 2008! haha

    Can't understand books?

    I think that because you're pretty new to magic a couple of the books are a little complicated for a beginner. Like "Expert at the Card Table". For me, when I first started years ago books were complicated as well. DVD's were easier because it actually had someone explaining it with live...

    Back At It.

    Hey guys! Wow, I haven't logged onto here in honestly like a couple years I'm pretty sure. I have also not been doing magic for awhile. But I want to get back into it, so I was wondering what kind of new material you guys recommend. I'm looking more for sleight of hand card magic. I was just...

    Social Media Magic?

    Hey dude. Yeah, this is an awesome idea. A lot of people do this. I suggest going out and performing once you've got a set practiced and have the patter to go along. I'm not sure how long you've been doing this, but I see a lot of people just starting out only performing for the webcam. The more...

    how do you use card shuffles without damaging cards

    The main thing is, they are cards and they are going to get battered after awhile. We as magicians put some work onto our decks of cards. I use regular bikes, and I usually pick up a couple of packs every week or every other week. I do a lot of springs and shuffles, but I actually like the deck...
