Hang on, I just put it down somewhere and now I can find the bloomin'
thing... DOHHH!!!
Seriously tho, I got the deck (on bicycle cards) and it's ok but some
cards
are slightly MORE slippy than they should be.
Can anyone please recommend a way of creating a friction surface on the
backs of the cards ?
Cheers
Steve

What you need is called "Roughing Fluid". People ask about it here
about
once a week. You can buy it from a magic dealer at an inflated price,
or
just go to a hardware store or hobby shop and get Krylon Matte Finish
#1311.
Testors also makes a similar product called Dull Kote, if I remember
correctly.
Apply lightly. Oh, and enjoy the brief high from the fumes.

Cheers Randy :-)
That info will come in very useful. I have a feeling that this I.D.
that I
bought were home-made probably using the same Roughing Fluid. Anyway,
they
do the job pretty much :-)

Testor's really worked well for me. I had the same problem (the cards
weren't holding together), but now the cards have just the right amount
of
friction.

I have practiced abit now with the deck and find that when you spread
the
cards, you should hold them quite tightly and the pairs stick together
and
when you want the cards to separarte handle that particular pair nice
and
gently.
Anyway, I have tried my invisible deck out on a few people many times
now
(including my girlfriend) and would definitely recommend getting a
deck.
They have been in utter disbelief each time, totally amazed so it was
worth
the £4 that I paid. I love this trick :-)
Having said that, I'm gonna TRY to concentrate on doing tricks
involving
sleights (mainly with cards) cos they give a lot of satisfaction if u
manage
to pull it off not to mention that they cost practically nothing.

here my ideas
on illsionist david copperfields cool illusions
except floating rose info
its neat myideas areevery where
on the inter net cool huh
bill page
<>< []xxxxxxxxx[]:::::::::>
David Copperfield
Great Wall Of China
EFFECT:
David Copperfield walks through the Great Wall of China
METHOD:
When David Copperfield goes inside the first box there was a switch
made, Copperfield goes under the box and goes into the hollow stairs he
then gets carried away inside the hollow stairs. A looks like in shadow
form pretends to walk through the first part of the wall, after he
plays his part he gets inside the hollow base platform. By that time
the assistance's pull the sheets away to show that he walked through
the first part of the wall. The stairs that Copperfield is in is behind
the camera boom as it makes a complete rotation over the wall. The
assistants on the other side of the wall take the same stairs and put
it next to the other plate form. The assistants climb the special
stairs and hold up a small white sheet of cloth. It looks like David
Copperfield is pushing his and face through the cloth. The secret
behind this action is that the person on the right is just controlling
a pair of fake hands which he controls with his right-hand. The person
on the left is just pushing a fake face through the cloth with his
left-hand. The two assistants then drop the small sheet cloth and
listen to the wall to see if David is all right. They then slowly roll
down the sheets to cover the frame box up and make sure it is tucked in
good, they go down the stairs to wait for Copperfield to make his way
through the second part of the wall. All he has to do now is get out of
the hollow stairs and inside the box and watch his angles with the
light. He then comes closer to the light so it looks like he is coming
through the second part of the wall. He pulls the sheets away to reveal
himself, the white cloth stays on the floor because it contains the
props.
VANISHING THE STATUE OF LIBERTY
EFFECT:
David Copperfield makes the statue of liberty disappear.
METHOD:
The audience can see the statue of liberty through the pillars The
curtain then comes up to block the audiences view. The live audience is
on a secret swiveling platform that rotated slowly to the side of the
statue. The statue of liberty lights are turned off, the blip on the
radar is part of a video animation. The curtain is then lowered, the
audience and the viewers watching on TV see that the statue has
disappeared but all they are looking at is a duplicate set of lights
that is situated right next to the real statue of liberty. The lights
on the two towers are there to night blind the audience for a few
minutes to make it hard too see the statue of liberty. The curtain is
then raised up the audience is rotated round again to face the statue
of liberty the curtain is dropped and the statue has reappeared.
FLOATING ROSE
EFFECT:
You probably seen David Copperfield do dancing paper & floating rose in
his TV special. You take a piece if paper, give form to it, and in you
command the paper float in the air, it also move. You can do it with
your hands in your back! After, you take the paper, give it the shape
of a rose, and magically the rose float in the air. You set fire to the
paper rose and it transform into a real rose!!!
PREPARATION
You need to buy some "invisible thread." Take one single strand of the
thread and attach two pieces of tape, one at each end. On one end wad
it up into a ball. On the other end, attach to anything. You also need
some flash paper with which to make the rose. You will need a real
rose, concealed in your left pocket and a lighter.
METHOD:
First, Put the balled up tape end of the invisible thread in your
mouth. Then make a rose out of the flash paper. Step back until the
thread becomes tight (you can tell because the tape in your mouth will
start to come out). Now place the paper rose on the thread, engaging it
under one of the petals, and viola! You now are floating a paper rose!
You can move it by simply moving your body. Now for the switch. Your
body should be with the right side to the audience, and the left side
hiding the rose. With your right hand, reach for a lighter (preferably
a zippo) and light it. Bring it under the paper rose, but DO NOT ignite
it. This is misdirection while your left hand grabs the real rose. With
the rose in your hand, light the flash paper, and bring your left hand
up to the same position as the paper rose. The appearance will be that
the paper rose turned into a real rose! Take a bow, and throw the rose
into the audience.

It is hard to argue against David Copperfield. No magician in history
has entertained more people, for more years and had more impact than
Copperfield. Over thirty years of touring continuously worldwide is
pretty goddam impressive. No other magician can match his great legacy
compelling TV specials. No other magician has ever combined his level
of technical brilliance with masterful theatrical presentations of
grand illusions. IMHO...David Copperfield is the greatest magician of
all time.

If you want some great card work, get yourself a copy of Mendoza Live
Volume
1. You will be amazed at the performance and then when he shows you how
easy it is you will again be amazed. Nothing incredibly hard. But as he
says on the tape, he does stuff that works.
