What an incredible last few weeks.  I just got back from Fechter's Finger Flicking Frolic and MAWNY where I was able to introduce a few new products as well as bring something back that I haven't been able to produce for almost 4 years.  Let's not waste time and get right to it.  I'm super excited because I've finally had enough strength and energy to start producing magic wands again.  That's the good news.  The bad news is that in the 4 years since I've made them the costs of exotic woods has skyrocketed.  For now, I'm keeping the price the same but it will have to go up in the near future.  For many of you, I have a surprise as I now have a two piece signature wand in the line up!!!  I only have a few so grab one now at the retro price.   

​

Many of you are familiar with my Delivery System 2.0  it is considered by many professionals the absolute best holdout on the market.  It was designed for fruit, cards, jumbo coins, rope and with careful use can be used to produce a genuine pool ball.  In 2018 I was talking with Garrett Thomas about creating something similar to produce a 8 ball during his act.  For years, I've worked and toyed with different methods but I couldn't get it right.  UNTIL NOW!   I took the basic design of the DS and modified it to the correct size for a 2.25" billiard ball.  Then I changed the locking mechanism so the ball was completely secure while in the holdout but releases in an instant when needed.  This took me quite a while to figure it out but the end result is nothing short of amazing.  It utilizes a regulation ball that is included.  Yes, it was designed to do only one thing.  However, it was designed to do it better and with more security than any other method that was out on the market.  Best yet, like the original, the gimmick all but disappears after the production.  If you are looking for the best, this is it.  These are literally all hand sewn by my mom and quality controlled by dad and myself.  The craftsmanship is simply second-to-none.  These are very limited supply as I sold a bunch at 4F.

​

Next, is my addition to the BAR SERIES line of cups.  I wanted to create a "natural" chop cup that would fit it your pocket easily and uses hyper realistic olives.  In the past I've created fake olives with pimentos but they look fake in my eyes.  With the OLIVE CUP you are getting an amazing little stainless steel cup and the most realistic olives without pimentos.  The action on these cups is spot on and you won't need to slam them to make the magic happen.  Introduced this past weekend at 4F I started with 50 cups and now I am down to just 15.  I'm keeping the introductory price of these at $75 until this batch is gone and then they will retail for $100.  If you think this might fit into your act grab one before the price goes up.

 

Lastly, I have been working with Dorothy Dietrich and Dick Brookz at the Houdini Museum in Scranton, PA.  Together, we created a super FUN and easy to do matching effect called ANIMAL KINGDOM.  While the trick is fooling, the most magical part of this effect is that the proceeds from the sales of it are going to help fund a new mural for the front of the museum and theatre!  ​​

 

In other news, I'll be lecturing for Ring 165 in Mt. Ephraim New Jersey on Monday, May 4th.  If you are interested and in the area contact them for details.  Also, It's never to early to put it on your calendar.  Labor Day weekend you can find me in the District of Columbia for the combined DC Festival of Magic and Ring 50's MagiWhirl and come November, I'll be headlining Super Sunday in Bensalem, Pennsylvania with my good buddy and fellow creator Paul Richards and the amazing Craig Diamond.  This promises to be an amazing event.   

 

If you know of a club or organization looking for a lecturer please feel free to contact me and see if we can work something out.  My lecture for 2026 will have lots of brand new items I've never taught in past lectures.

​

As always, I sincerely appreciate your support of myself and my magical creations and I hope our paths cross soon.  Cheers!
