Hello,

Excuse the title but I didn't know what else to call them. Has anyone else ever heard of these or seen these, I know Jeff McBride used them they're kind of like Freddy Krueger claws but on the end is I think a wick and you light the ends.

This isn't a very good description and I apologize they're kind of hard to describe. An alternate description would be gloves with long sticks at the finger tips, the Finger tips can be lit on fire and manipulations can be performed with the firey-fingertips.

Do these have a name? I couldn't find much about them but I was unsure of what to search . I'm thinking of briefly incorporating them into the beginning of a manipulation routine. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Ian

Anything like http://topsmagic.com/topshop/product_in ... ts_id=6531 ?

Maybe something like this would do it? http://topsmagic.com/topshop/product_in ... cts_id=234

It's more like the fire fan, but has anyone ever seen a pair of gloves like that? Or is that something custom made by whomever I saw performing it?

So thats why your avatar has no eyebrows!

Of course I may be wrong, but are you possibly talking about multiplying candles? If not then I'm sure they can be adapted to what you want to do because they are exactly as you describe, only they are not a glove or extension of your fingers, although I can see how they may look that way from a distance. Basically start with one, wave the hand there are two, then three then four then five, then you can have 5 in each hand, much like multiplying billiard balls.

That's not exactly what I'm looking for but it may work. I can always adapt them if I need to and it would be pretty cool... Hmmm... I may have to look into those.

Thanks everyone for your help.
