Dave Powell beats Milson Worth!

I’ve always loved the Milson-Worth Astro Ball and so I was excited when I saw Dave Powell was introducing his version. As with most of Dave’s work it is a beauty to behold. But what makes it even more impressive is if you look at the dimensions from the front it looks like the ball could not easily fit in the glass without tipping the glass. So when the ball ends up inside the glass it looks all the more amazing. This is quite different from the Milson-Worth version with this regard.

There are only fifty of these so make sure you snap yours up whilst you can. I’m hoping that Dave will be producing some other collectible items based on the success of this one. Dave Powell continues to impress me as one of the lesser known wonderful craftsmen out there.

A must for collectors everywhere, and its a great trick too!

What a Clever Principle and Great Trick!

Wow I was very lucky to get an early release of this amazing new effect from Josh Jay sent to me by that all round great guy Paul "Falling Down" Richards. I’m a big fan of Rob Bromley’s Extractor and this sweet gimmick allows me to perform an amazingly clean signed card to wallet without an expensive gimmicked deck or a trick wallet or any sleights whatsoever. Hello! What are you waiting for …

This is one of those ideas that people are going to love and I’m sure there will be lots of other effects based on this method. As far as I know this is totally new method and it works very smoothly. It really is as easy and good as the video looks.

You will not be disappointed with this beauty.

Highly Recommended!

Absolutely Perfect!

I’ve been trying to move away from cool electronic items, but I must say this Spirit Bell by Nick Wenger is absolutely amazing. It looks like some old contraption from Medieval times and even though you or the spectator build it piece by piece right in front of everyone, when you are done the bell still manages to ring on command.

Even when you know how it works you still can’t believe it – I have never seen a Spirit Bell like this. It looks great, works great and really is an amazing piece of electronic wizardry.

Get one if you can – you will not be disappointed!

Beautiful Table.

I’ve always fancied one of those tables they use in the L&L videos and now finally I have my very own Jim Zee Close-up Table.

What a beauty it is too, large enough for any complex card or close-up illusion and beautiful enough to keep my wife happy. It even has a little draw at the front for cards and other smaller items. Hard to find these days, but worth the search and the price.

Highly Recommended for the magician who already has everything else!

Very Clever Penetration

Mikame Craft continues to produce some great items and this product is one of their best. A totally new way to do the block penetration and you might think you know how it works, but it is much more than you are thinking. It can be thoroughly examined both before and after and nothing is added or taken away.

I held back purchasing this at first, but once I received it I was amazed. Very nice job. You don’t need to buy all the Mikame items, but you should not miss out on this one.

Highly Recommended.

The finest Finger Chopper out there!

This is certainly the best finger chopper I have seen – based on the Hades model, but much better quality and really looks like something that could chop your finger off!

The method is so convincing too and everything can be examined before and after. You really will have them fooled and holding their finger after this one!

What a beautifully clean and startling switch!

Wow I love this version of Doc Daley’s Last Trick by Jon Allen. It is so clean and the final transformation just looks so good. This was a big hit at our recent Christmas Party.

Highly Recommended if you want to fool them up close and personal!

Great Mentalism Prop

This outfit has a number of uses, is easy to do and very effective. You can predict what numbers the dice will land on, even though they are quite freely shown to be quite normal dice.

Another Beauty from Chance’s So Call EconoMagic Line!

Wow this is a beauty from Chance, and nothing feels cheap about this wonderful version of the classic Chinese Compass. High quality construction with very bold colors and a great logical ending.

If you’re looking for some usable kids magic or great bits of business for an MC you’d best stop looking here and head on over to Wolf’s Magic.

You can’t go wrong with any of Chance’s magic – it is all good value, performable, and unique.

A Beautiful card effect!

Collector’s Workshop make some wonderful and expensive props. However, it is in some of their cheaper effects where you can find some real workable and entertaining routines. The Clock of San Marcos Square is one such effect. I have used this many times on lay audiences and they just love it. It looks uncanny and is very convincing. Even if you can afford their expensive stuff you would be hard pressed to find a more unusual, workable, and entertaining close-up effect!
