Deluxe Metal Blindfold by Dave Powell, any feedback?

Postby TheMentalist » Sep 9th, '10, 21:21



hi there, i wanted to buy a good blindfold for once, instead of using the good ol scarf blindfolds.

so i knew about the osterlind steel blindfold, which should be great (and i know the secret BTW) but i coudn't get that blindfold in my country anymore. :(

the closest blindfold i could find is the "Deluxe Metal Blindfold" by Dave Powel, does anybody use this, is it just as good?

thanks!

i didnt like it - i may have gotten a dud; but if you really want a metal blindfold; then spend the extra and get the osterlind one...

but, have a re-read of corinda, and just try out a standard blindfold first...

And if you get the Osterlind one--look for The Blindfold Book (50 pages) by Jeff Busby & Richard Osterlind. First published 1987 by Jeff Busby
It gives you full instructions for using the Metal Blindfold and a number of routines plus other effects and inputs from Faucett Ross & Paul Fox as well.
Includes 10 pages of Recommended Reading titles & authors.
