I received an email from Dave Powell about this miniature Houdini Water Torture Cell he released this week.

It is a working 1/6 replica of the Houdini apparatus. Looks really cool, but not cheap! He has sold 5 as of the time of this posting. According to the ad, each one takes over 50 hours of labor to make.
I don't recall ever seeing the method in print anywhere- only that Doug Denning had to re-design it for his TV special as the original Houdini method would not withstand a close up from the camera.
