Hi all

Ive seen Keith perform this quite a few times now and was wondering if any of you knew which of the spike effects this is. Is it his own mixture of a few different applications or one thats available to buy?

I was going to get the sharpie version till I remembered this one but now I'm not so sure.

Sorry I know this isn't what you asked and it's annoying when people give you incidental unrelated advice but, whatever method you use, you should also get the safty net.

Now I don't know which one it is, but it looks like Wayne Dobson's one

Invoke not reason. In the end it is too small a deity.

I'd guess it's a Five Of Hearts item but Wayne certainly does a version like that. I have the smaller one where the spike is replaced by an embedded bullet which is less dangerous but equally painful if you get it wrong. The method in use is good and it's very difficult to actually get it wrong - you just need to pay attention and watch what you're doing. See the sort of thing at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cMO--HGBD0

yep five of hearts does look similar. I need something which doesn't involve a r### as its not something I would normally use.

It's easy enough to use a Pen Thru Anything, or even gaff up a sharpie, to replace the R***

Simply use as a pointer, during the effect, and you're away!

I need to find something that matches my style, but to be honest I guess nothing is more normal than a sharpie.
