For those familiar with 13 steps ...

Step one lists a great number of types of TW (or NW). I'm not how well updated that section is and if it is in fact related to modern products at all.

What I'm asking, I suppose, is what's available now days, or do people make their own?

I live at least 60 miles from a magic shop, so it's hard to just "drop in".

usually theres the three major ones available (from what i've seen)
traditional NW
boon
and TT

I'm rather fond of the boon types for close up, and those P.O.T.s you can now get (there's a review somewhere with tips from Seige i think it was) - they're very good...

i've made my own ink version with a TT, not that difficult at all, a little fiddly, but not complicated at all...

boon or p.o.t. for close up
TT version for stage/big parlour kinda thing...

thats what i reckon anyway...

Your package arrived then....lots to keep you amused there!
I use a boon or often PW instead.
There was a substance like a self setting clay that was mentioned on here some time ago which was good for making them molded to yourself. Maybe somebody can refresh our memories, although I will look for the answer it's on here somewhere.

not a fan of sigs, so I won't bother adding o..... oh
:oops:

I am not a fan of them tell the truth. I tend to go for effects using double writting I think Nyman come up with it, You need to be brave to do it but i like it.

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.

Or you could get a Super Sharpie. They've had mixed reviews but personally I think they're rather good.
