Re: What are you working on?

Funny you both mention the Elmsley Count because I'm trying to work in an Oil & Water routine that starts with...an Elmsley Count.

I started on it not too long ago, so it looks really bad.

What are you working on?

I know that we discuss and work with Tenyo to an untiring degree. Nothing wrong with that.


But are you working on something else in the magic world? Building a new trick? Making a routine? Working on sleights?


What are you working on at the moment?

It's one of the few Tenyo here that never get discussed.

Dude that would be awesome if you had them. Unfortunately, I do not. I had 'Dark Stranger as a kid and didn't like it. I'd probably appreciate it more now if I could remember how the whole routine goes. I have seen all 3 on EBay at least once last year. 'Dark Stranger is most common and I see it us...

Re: updated ENTIRE collection..short one

I'd like to have an Invisible Hook and the mentalism thing with the envelope, they do come on sale sometimes. Money Morph is hard to find indeed. Hidden Sun is a must buy if you find one, very clever principle, easy to do and spectators don't know how you did it. One of the best non-Tenyo Magic Wor...

Re: T-232 Balloon Illusion

I like this one as well. Nice simple gimmick to do a really fun trick. Also one of the few Tenyo items you can do on stage. Brett, This is not really fragile at all. There's really nothing to break. It would say it is very consistent after some practice. I've popped some balloons when I first got i...

Re: T-232 Balloon Illusion

I've always had this one in the back of my mind, but haven't pulled the trigger on it. Certainly not something I can use in the hospital (unless they make non-latex long balloons), but it'd be certainly fun to use for parties and such. Questions: - Does it have any fragility issues - Is it consisten...

what's so bad about what I'm doing? I saw that you have Card Surgery and 4-Dimensional Trunk for sale for $60 altogether, and I saved over $12 for them by putting them in my shopping cart on eBay. I'm just not interested in add-ons. I don't see the necessity in them. God bless, Jason Irelan I don't...

Re: What's everyone's favorite Tenyo trick?

I don't think there is a knockoff of Card Surgery. Since I have jumped into Tenyo and magic 2 years ago, I haven't seen or heard of one.


The cheapest one I can find is $25 on Ebay. That is including the shipping.

I will also vouch that John is no slouch. He's good people.


His add-ons only work if you have the original Tenyo in hand to utilize said add-ons.

Question about Magic Maze

All right. One idea I have had rolling around in my head is using Magic Maze in a kids show. However (once I get it and am able to copy the cards and such), I would build a much larger scale one to make it so a larger audience can see everything. I'm thinking maybe 3 or 4 times bigger than what it a...

There's a second one? I only saw one in the link. What's the other one like? I only saw about four tricks in the one kit, and I didn't feel that a lot of them were that great.

I don't care if they have them Pokémon themed as long as they are good Tenyo tricks. If they have Card Surgery in the kit; and it's Pokémon themed, I'll still get it.
