I don't have it, but I'm guessing B*** G***?

I like the * game :)

Why don't you like using it? I have NFW but it's sat in a draw. Not really for me as it's more of an 'in the hands of the magician' trick & a bit "look what I can do". I prefer to get people involved a bit more. I wonder if r******* f**** or s**** would work, you just wouldn't be able to throw the card(s) down at the end.

R&S would work and would be my suggestion.
Anyone need an RSNFW creating? Give me a shout! :wink:

Give it an experiment but would assume it would look worse that DST

Yep - B*** G*** / C******g G*** all the way.

I found that the T*** on my NFW was waaay too strong, and even padding at it to remove some of it's main property still didn't help massively.

Also, as it was used, it lost some of it's 'un-noticability'.

I removed it, and used a B*** G*** 'pen' to draw onto some coloured areas of the card (giving greater 'spread' than the T*** had), and the results are much, MUCH better.

IMHO wax or RnS simply wouldn't provide the clean handle-ability that this wonderful little effect deserves :wink:

In that case, young J, purchase this amazing little effect post-haste, and you'll gain a very large clue (and you'll almost certainly love NFW :wink: )

...Oh, and watch your language, for F***'* sake :lol:

Diachylon. There's an entire chapter dedicated to its uses in Encyclopedia of Card Tricks.
