There's a magical comment in the comment section for it which works like a charm. It says that once you separate the packets, and are ready to do the index finger action, instead of focussing on pulling down with index finger, pull down the bigger packet by applying downwards pressure with ring...

Sorry if I am being too naggy by asking so many times... :oops: But the thing is that when my hand is palm down, the coin is at a perfect angle. But when it is palm up,since the coin is not too firmly held, it forms a 90° angle for me due to gravity. That's bad?

EDIT:- Just saying...people give others snacks and food treats when they themselves are successful at something and it is almost a custom to ask for such food treats (think fries and cola). It's said in a friendly way. Like, if someone has rocked at it at a talent show, it is they who should get...

I play the Harmonium (yay for India :D) but actually, a piano is better for getting the finger dexterity going. Because both your hands' fingers work simultaneously. What's your age and what size are your hands? Like, round about? And here are a few pics for you :) :) That's the Charlier...

357 (said 435 originally, but 'twas repeated...so...)

Yay!

I'm coming for everything they said I would never have.

Is the coin supposed to be held very firmly? 'Cuz mine when in the pinch, shakes slightly when I move my hand...

Rehearsal is the best remedy here. Keep rehearsing! Don't just 'practice'... do it as if you were doing it for the audience and this is your last shot at it! Also, prepare a few backup plans, JUST IN CASE. Just saying, when I had a performance (stage...in front of the school) then I was...

Thanks! Appreciate it so much...

Thanks! A bummer it is...when you discover the copy you have is not the best, anyways, thank you for the information! Some help on the other technical aspects of the sleight please? How do I get the perfect angle?

There will be a comma or a hyphen somewhere in the thread title I guess...anyways... The Goshman Pinch I do always seems to get the coin pinched in a right angle! And even if I manage to have it a bit tilted, it does not stay in that way and goes back to 90° or more when I turn my hand over...

You Sir, seem a lot like Tony Stark. Just...you know...don't make an Ultron or something...just saying...

Ah...beware of the CJ!!!

I bet some of those illusions can be found in some other good and relatively cheaper books. Maybe try Mark Wilson's? There ARE sites that offer free reads for certain books, but alas, they do not have magic books. I expected nothing more...they are after all made by muggles...

Silica gel packets WORK...thumbs up for them! :-) Also, I dunno...but I have read putting them in refrigerators work. Look that up before trying it tho...

He had his mouth sewn shut? Ouch... Way to go primary-school teachers, your threats just got real...

Getting caught by one of my worst habits... 'Talking too much'. I've seen that while my style makes it possible for me to talk more than an average magician and still manages to make my trick look good, I still kinda hate that habit and keep trying to minimise it. But in a high-pressure...

Also, if you wanna purchase the Karl Fulves' book...remember, you will have to innovate quite a lot. The great methods will be revealed, but it will be up to you to use them. Saying so because most of his effects and methods cannot be directly used today...rendering some methods kinda...

Bobo's is an essential to gain the fundamental knowledge in coin magic. Know what? If you can do the French drop pretty well, you might as well check our Dai Vernon's 'Spellbound' (psst...check out Jay Sankey!). If you could gather some mind reading and mental magic, I think that would be...
