Review
basicly its a wooden change box, with two drop down doors and a permanant load chamber.


Overall
its small at 15x7x8mm (just under 6x2 3/4x2 3/4inch) but is easily handled, the load is equaly small but would be good for silk blendos etc.

That looks like a nice well made prop, and very reasonably priced too.

I do love well made magic "gadgets" like this, even if they don't really fit in with what I do.

build quality for price is very good, catches are a bit flimsy but the box is well constructed and wood looks nice and has a good feel to it.
the all important hinges are manly enough for the job and not skimped on in any way, its well worth the money for what it does i just would like sizes of products to be included in descriptions to help me choose items i need.

The price seems very reasonable for a prop of this kind. Looking at the picture, I'm assuming that this is the same sort of thing as used in a recent Jonathan Creek story http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/jonathancreek ... wood.shtml ?!
