The Raven magic trick

Postby Davendithas » Oct 7th, '06, 14:14



Hi All. I have recently bought the Raven from ebay.(Sry for not buying from fellow members!)I would like to know how to do it with short sleeved shirt.Heard from many that you can do in between buttons which i might have a problem using.Can someone teach me some ideas on how to do it with short sleeved shirt? If it will expose too much of the Raven secret pls PM me instead and give me some tips. Thanks.

Giving tips such as buying the DVD is surely allowed. Also, from what I know it doens't explain with the instructio ns how to perform the raven without sleeves. That can only be found out from other people that know.

Usually I'd think that no, this isn't allowed but as with this trick you can ONLY find out how to perform no sleeves from another magician, maybe its an exception?

I have the RavenX2 and it does come with the standard instructions showing the method of using it with a shirt i.e (not using sleeves at all.) However I allways use the long sleeve method because it works better for me, in my opinion.

But if you did buy it from ebay, it might not have come with instructions, so if you could take a photo of yourself holding the raven, and attach it with any PM you send to a member, that will prove you have it and you might get a better response. Just my thoughts, please feel free to ignor them, lol :lol:

i think thats a good idea. But the Raven DVD shopuld be worth buying as it teaches many other effects that can be used.

I dont understand why i must take a pic of myself and show everyone i have the raven when in fact i really have it.

so if you could take a photo of yourself holding the raven, and attach it with any PM you send to a member, that will prove you have it and you might get a better response.


By the way, how much is a raven dvd? and is it worth my money?

I said send it attached with any Private Message you send to a member, I did not sugest to show everyone you have it. Like I said you can just ignore me.

But if I was strugeling with an effect I had purchased, I would expect a member to want proof of purchase form me before they gave too much info away, I don't have a problem proving I own an effect myself.

I did not meen to cause offence, but some people have tried to get free sectrets on here before, and it has made some members a little defencive.

Fine. But its kind of wierd why would u show a picture of yourself to another person with you holding the raven. If someone does so, he can easily get a pic of another person holding the raven and send it to a person. You dont even know whether he really owns one because u never saw him before! Its still useless if u insist on attaching photos of you holding the raven.
