The prop works as advertised. It's very well constructed just be aware although it's strong it is
still made of hard plastic and could crack if you were to step on it or repeatedly drop it. This
ball will not bounce. It's a very visual transformation and the silk loads into it smoothly as
advertised, you are generously supplied with 2 nice quality gimmicked matching silks in case you
lose or break one which is unlikely.

The Perfect Silk to Ball operates well. The first one I ordered broke when winding the spring on
probably the twentieth time. It may be that it should not be wound too tightly...just enough that
it feels tight...if this degree of winding has been reached but the locking mechanism cannot be
engaged, don't force it any farther. Release a bit of the tension so that it will engage. I do want
to say THANK YOU to Penguin Magic for allowing me to return the broken item and sending me another!

The effect itself is great. I do wish they made different sizes. I use 1.7" manipulation balls. This
seems to be 2". So just be aware because if doing a 4 ball production, it does stand out if you're
using 1.7" size balls.

This has many applications in a silk and ball routine! A highly visual transformation that is easy
to use, and delights layman. Does what is says.

This gimmick is amazing, have try many different ones, this is the best one by far. Great job by JL
and great job penguin magic for having in it.

The ball is made of a nice material and comes with two scarves. But the turning knob breaks too
easily, I bought a second one and I tried to wind up the mechanism very carefully but it broke
again. There are other models in the market that made the turning knob metalic. That will be my
choice
The noise the gimmick makes ruins the effect. You would have to have very loud music on or be a very
long distance away to not hear it. Unless there’s something to make it silent, I can’t use it and
would like my money back.
Very nice. Make sure you watch the video. And practice. I bought two of them.
i am sory but astill have not get my order
