How safe is the ring?
Is there any chance you might drop the ring during the performance?
I don't mean just being clumsy, but are there fiddly moves, etc...?

There is one coin sleight. Although it requires practice, it is fairly elemental. I hate coin sleights, (not my thing) and I'm yet to be caught on it. There is no chance you could drop the coin unless you're being particularly clumsy/butter fingered! Hope this helps!

Easy yes.. Sleight, very basic..

True, but I'm more interested in impact that ease-of-method. I believe that producing the folded card from nested wallets is a *tad* more impossible than a single box. Of course, the box also has the advantage that it is in full view right from the start (which I suspect the wallets can't?).

Now I think of it, the Kaps handling of card to ring box is better still, as you don't have to fork out £££'s for the box. Ah well. Thanks for the info, nonetheless

My plan for handling is for two successive impossible location type routines. So I approach a table and hand out the mystery box with an elastic band around it. I make some comment about it being needed in the future. Then I begin by asking for a ring or a signed coin. I then perform the nest of wallets routine. People forget about the box. After this bamboozlement I take out a pack of cards and use an extractor, coupled with a mercury fold and make the card appear in the mystery box. I think they both work quite well together. You could also add a ringflite into the mix and make it one big routine for each table. I'm toying with this at the moment?!
