Review by Jim Kleefeld for The Box Goes In Da Box - Peter Prevos DOWNLOAD

5 out of 5 I truly enjoyed Peter Prevos book, The Box Goes-In-Da Box. It gives a history and background detailing Lubor Fielder’s Gozinta Boxes also known as the Parabox or Driebeck Die. There is a section with some intricate math detailing the proportions of sides and why the same-size boxes nest, but you can skim that if math is not your thing. Prevos tells about variations made by other companies, and offers several interesting routines. A chapter te...

I bought a four-legged “Pro” table, but discovered that the setup and breakdown tim...

Review by wizardpa for Horror Verite - Jim Kleefeld

5 out of 5 Awesome Effect, and easy to do. I love a bunch of things about this trick. You can actually have all 32 cards passed out and you’ll know what movie each person picked. Not only that you can tell then where the film they picked ranks in the top 100 horror films. I plan on making my version very creepy yet kind of funny at the same time. Thanks JimClick here for more information.
