TT Location

Postby moodini » Oct 28th, '06, 15:16



I was doing a restaurant show the other day.....and found a great location for my TT.....I used the looped label on the backside of my tie, and quickly threw a couple of stitches in the bottom of it so it works like a small pocket..........thought I would share it with you all!

I think you could use it for coins, silks, etc...

The inside of a tie makes a great Servante for light weight lengthy items such as a magic wand, flowers, a duplicate rolled up piece of paper etc. Blu-Tac or DS tape can help hold the gap closed until you want to steal items. The ticket pocket of ordinary jeans is great for holding and ditching a TT as the seam along the top helps retain it when ditching, and on some trousers there are handy tubes of cloth along the belt line where the adjusting straps go - very handy for hiding stuff until needed!

just a muse on that vein so to speak, have a card selected and show both sides then show the special magician's marking device ie blue tack, large lump of, and stick the card to your tie at the bottom with two thirds of the card hamging down past your tie.

wile positioning the card on the tie steal your tt loaded with a silk, above that is your wand which you alow to fall down and protrude from the end of the card.
rub the card sugestivly if its an adult audience and allow your wand to grow fron the end of the card, finaly show card both sides again, removing tack and fold into a tube, snap fingers and produce silk, show empty card back and front, straighten tie and ditch tt. :D

in an emergency, and you need to ditch that very second or two, the soft TTs can be squeezed a little and "suction cupped" to various places - the inner part of your forearm if sleeves are rolled up...the under side of some tables too...

only in emergencies though, if more people have suddenly gathered round you and all your angles are no longer safe...
