How to do Magic tricks

Have you ever seen the magic trick which the magician magically produce a handkerchief inside a transparent decanter? By using the same principle, we can do amazing magic tricks, too. We start off by using different objects, like a picture instead of a handkerchief. You can use whatever things to do the trick, but the object would decide what you can do with it. You would also need a proper hiding place for it, too. Like a picture, it can be rolled up and hide in the edge of a photo frame.

To meet modern conditions we might borrow the indirect method of applying the power to pull the thread. Spinning the frame, as Orrin spins the web, would do. The frame might be mounted, spinning around vertically. Or it might spin from back to front, horizontally, on a shaft extending from side to side. Of course, we could spin it as the web is turned.

And then experiments should be carried out to test various hiding and pulling method. Find a place to hide the photo so that it is invisible while standing by and pulling out. Numerous trials would be needed to ensure the successful movement of the photo or picture every time the turning is executed.

There are many different ways to pull the thread. You could spin the frame, or you could pull the thread with counterweight. One possible way is to fasten the other end of the thread to a fixture on stage. Then the magician can walk forward or away from the fixture with the frame holding in his hands. The thread will be pulled and the picture appears.

Or go back to the milk bottle. Use that instead of a decanter. Put it on a turntable. Provide a method of fastening the bottle so it will not fly off. Then spin it. This could cause a handkerchief, a flag, even a flower to appear, pulled into view quickly from a pocket concealed within the turntable top.

This thread pulling device can be applied to more than stage props. You can setup the system on your body and make things like handkerchief or cards to appear at your finger tips. Secure a thread on the object you want to produce. Fix the other end on a place like your belt. The object then can be hidden within your clothing. When you want to produce the object, hook your thumb onto the thread and extend the hand quickly to cause the object to fly into your hand.

Try out the possibilities and have fun. You can produce a silk, a rose or cards at your command and create more magic out of them.
