    Tuck Case Protectors

    Hey Pizza, Do you mean the plastic tuck boxes that are clear or do you mean card clips/leather carrying pouches? B.

    Double Cross issue

    Hey Rayne, I think the key here is confidence. I’ve never been called on it. I did an effect many years ago by Rich ferguson that had a similar principle and got caught a few times until I realised I have to commit to it. Confidence is key here. Also, you may just need a new thing, for...

    Ink-like smear on cards overnight

    Looks like the glue that joins the two sides of each card has melted and seeped from the edges. Can’t say I have ever seen that before. I would suggest contacting the retailer and probably the USPCC to see if they have seen it before. Very interesting. B.

    I need some advice on certain books

    Hey Syd, Both books are nice reads but Hugards annual is a much shorter read. Modern Magic is a classic and definitely worth having on the shelf. B.

    MELBOURNE MAGIC SHOPS// GOOD MAGNETIC flipper coins

    Wasn’t sure if this was for Melbourne Australia or Melbourne Florida. If Australia then I agree with the above. Unfortunately, we no longer have any retail magic stores in the state. If this is about Florida, I have no idea because I’m In Australia B.

    Joshua Jay

    Brilliant effect. Has it’s limitations but I quite like the thought that went into it. I rarely have an opportunity to perform it as it doesn’t fit my routine. B.

    types of thread for gypsy thread routines

    Hey Mate, No specific companies but I tend to find 100% cotton works best for me. Those that have polyester are harder to deal with, harder to break and also appear a little thinner. I don’t think the brand will matter so much as the 100% cotton does. B.

    Card Prediction with Numbers on the Backs of Cards

    I can’t recall the name of the effect but it looks like a take on an effect that was released by Christopher Schenk. It revolves around a date in his effect but Chris R. Has used random numbers instead. I’ll see if I can find the name. B.

    Card Prediction with Numbers on the Backs of Cards

    Do you have a time stamp so we don’t have to watch the whole thing. Do you mean the intro trick?

    Ricky Jay has passed...

    Just heard the news and I’m devastated. A legend in both the visual arts, acting in many shows over the years and a legend in the field of magic. He will be sadly missed. B.

    The Art vs The Tools

    I agree, I believe the process can unfold with both mindsets. Sometimes the tool will inspire an effect and sometimes an idea inspires an effect. I wouldn’t say that by removing the tool you are any more artistic. I think that is defined by both the choices you make in constructing the...

    Beautiful Storage Options?

    I do, but no images unfortunately. I have plastic tubs that I bought from a hardware store that stack on top of each other that I store most of my books and cards in. Not great options for displaying things but great for storage. I have seem some nice storage boxes at IKEA though and it may be...

    Beautiful Storage Options?

    Hey Sulman, I use a big glass doored bookshelves for most of my interesting stuff. This photo is old but gives you an idea of the bookshelves. B.

    New to magic, new to the forum.

    Bertram is a fantastic book however I would probably lean into expert card technique more often. Both are great books though! Expert card technique is much more affordable. B.

    New to magic, new to the forum.

    Hey Sammy! Welcome to the forums. Many great books exist that can get you running fairly quickly with the basics at least. I would start with Royal Road to Card Magic followed by Card College. Royal Road is a crash course and will give you the tools to get started with a deck of cards...

    This trick looks intereting

    Hey Krissy, Intriguing, but I always feel dissapointed with these types of trailers. They rarely leave me feeling like it will work out the way it’s marketed. And usually the effect leaves me the same. B.

    Thoughs???

    Hey Wesley, Are you planning on performing this as an ambitious sequence or as a singular effect? In both cases you may improve from diversifying your DL. Try catching a break first and grab the cards from the side rather than the top and the bottom of the cards. Looks great, this tip...
