Magic Tricks

I learned this from Morgan at a master class he gave in New York, and got the DVD afterward, so I wouldn't need my scribbled notes anymore. It's a fabulous routine.

But... you need very soft forks to do the routines, which means either getting very lucky at a restaurant supplier or having to buy Liquid Metal Forks. The former cost about $0.05 a pop. The latter cost about $.70 a pop. This is therefore a more expensive routine. I often joke about how metal bending is cheaper than card magic. Well, not so much with this routine.

Also, because this is Sans Minds, you can't perform this for TV, meaning you probably can't perform this on the internet either, which could be problematic if someone at a gig whips out their iPhone and puts you on Instagram. I don't know if they would bother to enforce it at that level, but it's a worry.

I love the effect though. I was working on something similar and this is so much better. I love that it uses some sleight of hand as well as traditional metal bending methods. I love that some of the moves are also useful with a Quantum Bender. I love how this effect inspires me. I just wish I could do it with regular dominion pattern forks and not fancy ones from the magic shop.
