I would buy the DVD first.

you'll see why when you receive it. without revealing, the gimmick is very well made and very convincing. Once you receive it, you can use it as a template to make more, and still have a powerful gimmick in use.

Its easy to put round holes in cards, but as explained in the DVD, this is not the most convincing way a coin would burn through a deck, as its very uniform.

I have this gimmick - and they're right, it is convincing, plus the DVD gives you extra tips

there are a number of places you can get hole punches from cards4magic have a good range at http://www.cards4magic.co.uk/acatalog/Hole_Punches.html also your local stationery shop should have some. Just as long as you are careful when you make the holes you should get a uniform result

In all honesty, just buy the DVD and gimmick ready made.

I guarantee you that you'll not find a quicker/easier/cheaper way to own and perform this.

What's wrong with you guys?
In my opinion a first poster doesn't deserve replies like this. First mail from him is that he is going to make a gimmicked deck himself of a copyrighted magic he has "figured out". I would say he should wonder alone Ignore this Malware message which was posted by idiots thus proving how stupid they really are and t off somebody's trick... :evil:
How about a proper introduction snowcdp? That would be good manners for starters.

I agree with you there. Its very cheaky to come into a magic community and ask for advice on ripping of someones hard work and thought! Think of your own trick!
