I'm looking for a multiple paper money switch where i can use notes of differing sizes i.e. £5 into £10 notes or £10 into £20 notes what would people recomend as tt no good as i want simaler affect to extreme burn multiple notes

I'd suggest that you research the old Gypsy Readers and how they would "burn" large sums of cash in order to remove this or that curse on a family... I'm working on a case with local law enforcement in which the "psychic" pulled that very same stunt...

Outside of that you might check out Annemann, I know there's a could of idea there, you can make an OM Box, buy a Change Bag... there's virtually HUNDREDS of methods for bulk switches to be found in BOOKS. As to which one will prove to be "the best" depends on what your performance settings are, what you wish to portray or project as a performer, etc. What would serve one person in this capacity and work flawlessly might not be right for your situation thus, it's not "the best" for you.

Long story short, start grabbing the books and studying. Start experimenting with methods you already know that are used in stage or parlor magic and see how you could adapt them, making your own set-up that works best for you.

To become a "real" magician and live up to that title, means that you compel yourself -- you challenge your own creative nature and your create. As I used to say in my stage illusionist days, Think of the impossible and then work backwards until you come up with three different ways of making the desired effect happen. Then, work with the better of those three variations in your act.

Hope this helps you out

Depends on what you want to do. I think there is a thread here somewhere that lists the hundreds of different bill switches out there.

If you are wanting to change a handfull of bills, into a higher denomination. you need to make up a blank papper to bank note up, using bank notes, rather than blank paper.
I seem to remember that this was something that Dr Sawa did in his act.
when he appeared on the Best of magic years ago, he produced hundreds of real fifty pound notes. Presenter Anthea Turner was visibly shocked as she mouthed.."MY GOD, THERE REAL!" As she inspected the bills.
Quite a powerfull moment.

Theres a nice effect ive seen Daniel Garcia do called Greed, which i believe can be purchased of the ellusionist site. Very visual and clean.

Yeah have seen greed not the effect I'm after though a good effect. Dale you got the idea of what i want to do bloody prob is our english money all different sizes so i can throw hundy out at this point. This where the yanks got the right idea all notes the same size lol.
