Yep. It's true. You did.

But it sparked off the 'reminder'.

So is there some sort of marker that can be rubbed off at the end, or would some methanol or other alcohol sort it out?

Bikes are well known to retain markings of most kinds so I doubt there would be any ink which could be completely removed.

You could use a dry wipe marker instead of a permanent marker but it has tendancy of rubbing off.

If you used alcohol or methanol to remove the marker you would have to be careful about not damaging the card because even if the solvent disolved the marker it might also disolve glue which holds the layers together if it soaks through or touches the edges and that will leave a nasty blemish on the card.

All the best,

My Black Tigers arrived today - direct from Ellusionist (not Wand Magic etc).

If you haven't got yours yet, they're on the way... :D

And a swift WooHoo from me - my decks from Ellusionist arrived this morning and they are stunning! All Ihave to do now is figure out some easy peasy routines to show them in their best light!

Anybody tried, Blackening the Edges with a marker?
Just did it with one of my Decks and it workd really well, time will tell if it starts to rub off.
They look absolutly amazing with the white edges blacked. :D
Although Avoid the 3Clubs the unk spills and shows and the surface.

yep..... bee decks have nothing in common with black tiger decks other than they are made at the same place. However they are great cards for 3 card monte and they seem to fan a lot easier

What?

You've got some money?

Working 11hr days at the moment unpaid I'm surprised you've even got the time at the moment, let alone any funds.

I'd stick with Toymaster and play with their picture cards Ben.

Hehehe

My decks arrived, and how excellent they are... especially as all the suits are the same colour... lots of classic effects just became (practically) descrepancy free!!!

Try "The Visitor" (Larry Jennings) without the clever mis-show... Also, Jazz aces looks nice, because if you push the aces into the spot cards until just a tiny bit sticks out, you can turn the packet face up, and flash an ace going into it... because all they see is the little A... and as there are no colours, there is no chance of descrepancies.

Although...

I might need a red deck for Out of This World...

:D

Nice tip for the Jenning trick, thanks.

Yes, the all white pips make Lennart Greens Angle separation interesting!

I was working last night at a venue where the room was dimly lit and had UV lights, these cards GLOW! They look great, both the all white and the red pips.

I've just bought two version one packs from wand magic and I got two freebies with them. One is a traffic lights trick and the other one is a plasticy Lord of the Rings Ring. It's not magnetic and I can't think of a use for it or a reason that they sent it to me. Any suggestions?
