The table is NOT gimmicked and it doesn;t matter how thick the glass is.

Other than the coin, the secret and the instructions should be included in the packaging.

How about opening a car door and using the window? It'd be very impromptu.

Car windscreen, shop window, picture frame etc.

All work well (btw, the coin in picture frame is MY OWN IDEA... PM me for info...)

I have a very similar effect called Liquid Silica in my Get Fluxed booklet, btw, if anyone is interested.

Liquid Silica is where I learnt this effect. (It's also how I managed to lop of a hunk of my thumb when Mega Bertha stuck to Big Bertha with my thumb in the middle :().

The only problem I found is that it's pretty hard to do it on a surface that it not horizontal, as the coin can't be released by the top hand at any time which makes it hard to rub it through the table, if you see what I mean.
