Well, it’s been a crazy couple of days (I’m starting to think “13” really is unlucky,) but I am finally formally announcing, “Playing with Blocks,” the supplement that was released yesterday.

I know many people have applauded Elliott's Switchcraft - and I'm only repeating the many who came before me - but I feel the need to continue what others are saying.

This is, hands down - one of the best purchases I have ever made. And it should be noted that Elliott has already created enough supplemental material to fill an entirely new book - FOR FREE. Well over a year since I bought this (underpriced) ebook - and we're still getting a steady supply of updates and ideas!

Thank you again, Elliott - for your continued generosity and ingenuity. This book should be on the e-shelves of every single performer of any level.

Having bought Switchcraft this morning, I was shocked when I opened the document. Expecting a simple 20 page pdf I could read in my lunch break at work, I nearly fainted when I saw 462 pages. :shock: It's going to take me years to get through this, but it looks so much easier than Corinda. Just what I needed.

Switchcraft on its own would have been well worth the price with 127 pages of tutorials and techniques for billet work. I'm still amazed at how generous Elliott has been with the free supplements. Fantastic. Thank you very much Ellliott! :D

Got this on Friday and i've been reading through it during the weekend, This is just wonderful, it also got me hunting through my bookshelf to re-visit one of my very favorite books, Barrie Richardsons' ACT TWO, which first fired up my interest in billet work.
I now also have something to keep my itchy fingers busy in my quest to kick the evil weed.
If anyone has any doubts,stop, you should get this quick before Elliott sees sense and triples the price ($20/£12) !!

Wife- " what's this you've bought ?"
Me-" erm, index cards"
Wife- " what for ? "
Me- " erm, mindreading"
Wife- " you're nuts you are, completely nuts "

Cheers Elliott
