Very nice Pete! I made myself a version of this awhile ago, but I like your version better as your version places suspicion equally on the card and the card frame where my version places the suspicion mostly on the card. I think your version would leave the audience scratching there head more than my version. Nice!

Great...I made it myself also Pete but a jumbo stage version. The sleeve is ungimmicked right ? But the card is specially constructed.

I own the jumbo version called Mismade Queen: http://www.nikhilsmagicshop.com/mismade-queen .

Here's a nice demo of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqQhm8Oq4kE

Does this use the same principle? The card of the Mismade Queen is gimmicked but you won't notice from a distance.

Where did you buy your small version Pete?

I have the small version too bought at Tony Reisner for only 6 euro, very good made but only with a red frame with of course 3 windows, but no sleeve. But I can make that myself of course :)

My version above is a jumbo card, but I will remake it one day with a similar card sleeve like Pete's

I'm back at work this week so I'm going to try something ambitious, to laser cut my own gimmick. it'll require some very delicate 'lining-up' but it will make a more discreet gimmick (plus the blackened edges of the cuts should hide it a bit better.)
Now you see me...

Simon, will you laser cut the card? Because that is the gimmick.
