Andy Martin –
Mike Rose creates some great small run, custom items and I just picked-up his latest releases. This one is Arch Arcs which is a wonderful, non-mechanical, close-up version of the Stretch-It Boom-E-Rang released by P&L c. 1934 and later produced by Viking here.
These little arcs are beautifully crafted by expert magic apparatus builder Louis Paul and feel great in your hands. They are made in maple and walnut. Mike has produced eight pages of very detailed and high quality, photo illustrated instructions to go with his great routine. These days with online downloads you almost never see such detailed and well produced instructions – they could easily be part of a book Mike is working on (I don’t know but the quality is that good!).
There is a switch required but because you start with the optical illusion the switch is very easy and clean and happens quite naturally either under the cover of the black velvet carry bag or with an alternate handling in your hands.
The routine is surprisingly easy and effective and reset takes an instant and you have nothing to go wrong or recharge. Which is a welcome change to some of the magic I try these days 🙂
