I have an idea. Let's have a few of us get together and invent a trick or effect. Let's brainstorm and come up with a few ideas. Maybe you have an idea for an effect but do not have an idea how to make it happen. someone on this sit may know how to make it happen. Let's generate a list of effects and pick one. Then we will make it work. If it is good enough maybe we can even get DJC help us market it.
For example, would it be possible to have a spectator place a signed card in the deck, place the deck in th box, hold the box up to a window, and finally remove the box to see the card on the other side - penetrating the box and the window.
If you think my idea stinks or that someone else's does please criticize in a nice way.

How about manipulating the writing on a magic marker. I think of something like erasing the first "r" in marker to spell "MAGIC MAKER".

Thank you for getting the party started. That is a good idea.
Anyone else? If we put our heads together we can invent something wild. Let's try to come up with some effects that no one is making.
* A possible way to make that happen would be to print a false label of some kind. The biggest challenge woul be to make it look visual and magical.

The red is the red back of the deck of cards.The 3 of hearts is going in ,but comes out the other side a Queen of clubs.
I'v cut a few cards up already trying to make a gimmick ,but all i'v come up with is ,well ,NOTHING :-(
And yes i want the specks to see the 3 face towards them and the quenn come out the same way.

Firts of all it's thecardkid(lol) Ok, you double lift 2 cards and stick them in the deck so one is facing out one end, and one is facing out the other. Then cover one card so they can't see it(they don't know it's there), and slam the other one and show.(I'll try and make a video)

First of all ,please except my apology about the name.
And yes ,a video would help a lot better.
And remember ,i want the specks to see it going in and coming out at the same time.
I nearly done it ,but i cant show me putting the card in the deck.
"Example" The 3 of hearts has to be in the deck before i do the trick.

To the the trick extra awesomered, don't put any slit in the box or anything, it penetrates through it. And you can have them examine that part.
