Magic Tricks

These shells are a lot better than I thought they were going to be. It's Vernet, so you know it's going to be plastic. But these shells have a nice shape and a nice grip to them. They're also very sturdy. I thought I'd be able to squeeze the sides in just because they were made of plastic. Not so.

Pros: Very inexpensive, so if you lose a set or a shell, it's easily replaced without hurting your pocket. Very nice action with the pea. I haven't tried these with the shot glass move but due to them being very light, I don't see it working - but I could be wrong.

Cons: They're made of plastic, but only if that bothers you. They are also one solid color but they're a good walnut color. So it's only an issue if you're looking for lights and darks on your shells.

I have a set of Roscoe skulls, a brass TCC set, and these Vernets. I love my skulls and they are my "shell" of choice for formal shows. But next in line are definitely these Vernets.
