So I'm looking for a gizzmo...

Postby ultimatecreate » Oct 23rd, '13, 13:11



...to help load items before a production for close up work.

During my close up routine, I find myself having to go regularly to my pockets for my sponge call routine (which ends in a multiple ball load - 8-12 balls) and ambitious card routine (for the omni deck).

I'm looking for something to help load and provide easy access to my omni deck, but more importantly the multiple sponge ball load.

Does anyone know of anything that's been designed for this purpose?

thanks for any help in advance!

Alex

I'm sure you can find a h**d o** that you could use for an omni deck. I've got a leather one made by Gary James from Edinburgh.

For your sponges, you could fashion something from a cylinder. A modified 35mm film canister works for fewer sponges, but for that number, maybe a longer tube? Cut a wedge shaped hole - push down with the thumb and load into palm. PM if you want a fuller explanation.

keep the balls in your pocket, and buy a deck dropper for the omni deck. This will pin to your trousers.
