Haha, the Pardoner's Tale from the The Canterbury Tales. I had forgotten that quote- perfect for this trick... And to agree with Joe, half the fun is making the trick but as you can see, it's definitely well worth it. Keep performing and reading good books Dave

thanks everyone, i really appreciate all the positive feedback... to get the right dimensions, i used a T-square and an exacto knife, i spent a good half and hour cutting out just the paper before i even began the construction.. :) Its worth it in the end, trust me...

I've done something similar with Extreme Burn. I use paper, but I draw, in crayon, one dollar bills on the faces and backs of the paper. I usually say something like, "This should do it," and when they look at me, I say, "What, you don't take this here?" Then, proceed to amaze.

nice idea, i did that originally, but my pen leaked through all the bills, ruining the first set, so i had to make everything again, but it does looks good with the $ written on, and thanks a lot for the comment :D PS: the latin phrase: Radix malorum est cupiditas means ''the love of money is the root of all evil", perfect patter to turn the cash back into paper..

Are you sure? I could have sworn it was " source to choose is ambition ". Fantastic job, anyway. Favorited. :)

Hmm, unlucky on the first set then :P. How about pencil? I suppose that shouldn't cause too many problems :D. But then again, i don't actually own the effect yet so i wouldnt know the boundaries of whats possible.

Nicely done. I'll be picking this up eventually :P. Also, if I were you I would have written some dollar signs on the notes (maybe even infront of the spectator, pehaps building the patter around that), just something i think could be cool =). Zep.
