okok stop fishing for methods.. i think this thread has reached the stage where nothing more can really be said about the effect without giving the method away. Any more fishing questions will see the thread locked

You are in for a good reaction when you do try it mog. I think the reactions to this are much better than I got from performing coin in soda actually.

hey is there a set up???? and how long would it take to set up?

once the coin is in the bottle can it be removed?

This forum is not intended to expose the tricks. This forum is intended for magicians to give each other advice and share experiences with various methods, props, gimmicks, and learning tools. All of the questions you are asking is basically "how do you do it?" I suggest if you really want to know, then buy the trick. If you don't know if you want to buy the trick then read the previous posts to help make your decision. That is what this forum is for.

Yes i am familiar with the rules of this forum and it is stupid to accuse people becaus the fact that i posses no gimmicked coin adn live in singapore mayb e a problem for me. I suggest you dont put two and two thogether before you actually understand ones situation before saying stuff like that as it is pretty irritating.

If questions as straitforward as is there a switch of coins which is needed to be known as this is an instant download and singapore being a place where teh coins u find are EXTREMELY different to the uk, problems may arise for me and i want to make sure i dont spend unessasary money. If answering these questions means that you may expose the trick, by all means do no such thing buts its wrong to make me out as a typical person who isnt bothered about forum rules and someone who just wants to find out how the trick is done

You don't need to use a certain coin for this so any currency will be fine matey.

You should be able to get hold of what is needed without any problem no matter where you live.

Just downloaded it. I think this is potentially much easier to do and just as effective as Abyss, which I have as well but have never really got on with.

I can see me actually using this and getting through a few bottles of healthy fruit juice as well.

Hmm what's the time? Nearly 10pm. The corner shop's still open.....

I stumbled across this little gem and absolutely love it. This is the most visual coin thru bottle I\'ve seen yet! The coin is seen to slowly, visually, and audibly melt through the glass. The bottle with the coin inside is IMMEDIATELY handed out to the spec for complete examination. The coin and the bottle can both be examined and can both be borrowed. There is very little skilled involved and can be mastered in a short period of time. This is a very creative effect and just jumped up to one of my favorite tricks. It would be a fantastic follow-up to the standard coin in the bottle that all magicians should know. Pros: the coin penetrates slowly and visually, the coin and bottle can be borrowed, the coin in bottle can be handed out to examine or for a souvenier. Cons: It\'s hard to actually think of some cons for this effect. It is slightly (and I mean VERY slightly) angle sensitive but i\'m only saying this because I can\'t think of any cons. The gimmick is very small and easy to make. In fact, even if you were not prepared to perform the effect, you would most likely have access to the materials to make the gimmick and could just go into another room and make one in about a minute or so.
