Hi everyone first of all thanks for this forum.....

I'm 39 years old a huge Tenyo collector from the U.K, been collecting it for most of my magic life (31 years) always look forward to this time of year when I can find out and get the new line of products.

my collection stretches to about 150 items including specials and I'm always adding to it each month with new purchases.

Favourite Tenyo trick is Crystal Cleaver, Least is Mini Morphosis because of its workings (not always accurate).

im contactable through my website

Hi jay, nice to meet you. I'm a fellow Brit, (essex, but don't judge me on that ;) crystal cleaver was my first tenyo, saw it on kids tv (think it was the mb version) and had to find out how the hell it worked. Been hooked ever since. I found mini-Morphosis a bit temperamental too, I came up with a new working you may like, it's here...

I've never been, do you need tickets? If so how much are they? I'd love to go along, reckon we should get as many people from the forum over here in blighty. What part of the uk are you in?
I actually had mini-Morphosis a few years back, I never got the hang of it and ended up losing it in a big clear out. I've made friends with it again by using a pk ring, it's much cleaner and you have more control over the switch.
Now you see me...

Although as you can see from my vid, you still need Ride of the Valkyrie blaring in the background to cover the noise ;)

Welcome Jay!

I played with Mini Morphosis only yesterday and had to try it several times before it worked. But there are some solutions which we will discuss in one of the upcoming threads in 'Focus On Tenyo' I'm sure.
I believe a stronger neodium magnet may help.

Nice website with cool videos by the way :)

That is great. Spread the word. Tenyo is legitimate magic.

You can check the "sister" website to the forum for information that you might be able to use in your presentation.

Tickets are usually around 100 GBP for the 3 days. I've been there this year, bought a few nice old Tenyo items from the organiser Derek Lever. I'm thinking of going next year too, but I'm not sure yet.
Tenyo Rocks!!! :–)
