Beautiful Effect, Low effort

This is one of the most ideal methods for this effect that I have come across. Paul Harris’s Osmosis has been a mainstay for me, but I always wanted to leave it linked. This solves that problem with pure simplicity. Not only is the effect strong, ends with an impossible souvenir, and is methodically unfollowable, but the crafting is minimal and I made a batch of ten in half an hour. I would highly recommend this for any performer looking to leave their spectators with a signed card that they’re not just going to throw away afterwards.

So simple yet insanely impactful

Ben Williams kicks ass with this gimmick. Use It as a stand alone trick or as a kicker to an ACR or any signed card routine. This thing is great!

Amazing project.

Super practical in performance as it is really only one card where you can do this miracle with. The work is the prep for this trick and I think it's worth it for this particular effect. great job

Ingenious Fooler

I was very impressed with the detailed instructions on creating the gimmick. The time it takes to make the card is equal to the impact the trick has on the audience.

This is amazing

This is really amazing. You must have some skills but not to much. This is completely illusion. You must have OCL if you interesting illusion.

Devious, simply devious!

I watched and watched the trailer demo and each time I couldn't believe my eyes. I'm a fan of torn and restored and linking cards, but I haven't found a method I can replicate with any competency. After I purchased the download I couldn't believe how devious the method and handling are. You end, literally, completely clean...how?

You give the spectator the completed linked cards as a souvenir to keep...forever!

Although this is an incredible handling, I want to be transparent in advising that if you're considering this, the preparation of the card requires attention to detail. The pre-preparation requires only one card and tools most should already have in their desk drawer.

I've seen other versions and have a few booklets on this effect; however, this is the best I've come across. If you're not afraid of detail prep, I highly recommend this.

Hand crafted brilliance

If you have the skills to split cards, you’ll be able to do this. If you don’t, maybe this could become the reason to learn them for you. If one is inclined to DIY, then this trick should be considered. I’m still in the learning process, and plan on using this as an impossible object hand out like the woven “Impossibill“ I do, rather than switch it in at the end of a routine. It’s stand alone power would probably overwhelm even the best routines and the switch could be awkward.

Great piece of magical wonder

This just gets better and better the more they think about it. Its a perfect ilusion. I personally dont worry about making it visual. I find i get a stronger feeling when i hide the link. Under a jacket, a table... it just leaves this question of how? lingering in the air, and they know there cant be a how. Which makes it even deeper.
