The wand is beautifully made and is a real bargain -- any magician would be proud to display/use
this prop...but I purchased it as THE wand to use with a cups and balls routine, and for THAT
purpose, I think the wand is simply too heavy, especially if you plan to do the spin or strike
vanish (unless you have extra large or strong hands) -- I had a beautiful hard plastic glitter wand
that I bought 35 years (yup, I said years!) ago, but alas, it broke recently as I was practicing the
spin vanish -- if I had been using THIS wooden wand with brass tips at the time, the damage would
have been far more extensive!
