MyMagic eNewsletter #1,422
August 1, 2026
While you are reading this, I am probably on a plane to Las Vegas for Magic Live! I was told that my booth is there already and the two deliveries I am expecting should arrive on schedule.
In a few days you will receive another newsletter with my latest release and some surprises. Until then I wanted to offer you an inexpensive David Roth download that teaches an easy Coins Trough The Table quickie that he used to fool magicians with.
►Squash:
This is a quick routine David Roth used to fool many knowledgeable magicians with. He saved it for special occasions where he was seated at a table with everyone in front of him.
He displayed four loose coins and placed them in the center of the table, covered them with his palm, when all of a sudden they were heard penetrating through the tabletop into his waiting hand. Completely vanishing from the center of the table without any kind of apparent sneaky stuff. Everything was examinable at the end.

►Unlucky Dice Cheat:
Dice Stacking is usually presented as a demonstration of pure skill. You scoop up a handful of dice with a cup and, when you lift the cup, the dice are neatly stacked one on top of another. It is usually more about showing off your skill than performing magic.
Christian Scherer takes Dice Stacking in a completely different direction. Instead of using it simply to display technical ability, he seamlessly weaves it into a full Magician vs. Gambler routine where the stacking enhances the magic rather than becoming the focus. The routine also features a complete storyline with a beginning, middle, and end—something rarely found in Dice Stacking routines.
As a bonus, the book includes Clarke “The Senator” Crandall’s classic booklet, How to Stack Dice for Fun and No $! And access to Gerry’s Extreme Dice Stacking video tutorial.
Between Scherer, Crandall, and Gerry, you’ll have the techniques, ideas, and inspiration to create your own Dice Stacking routines—and turn a display of skill into memorable magic.

►Sword Illusion ProCase:
The Magic Sword Illusion is arguably one of the best and most deceptive illusions in magic. The problem is that it looks like a toy.
It creates an impossible illusion of a knife repeatedly penetrating through a toothpick or any such object. It is truly a mind-boggling illusion that seems impossible even after you know how it works.
The idea was to create a case for it, so it looks less like a toy and more like an interesting oddity.
The Sword Illusion ProCase you receive comes ready to perform. It is a custom-made black case made of strong plastic that has a rough texture. The case tightly fits around the standard Sword Illusion and comes complete with a Sword Illusion already embedded so it can be performed immediately.

►MY LATEST RELEASE:
►Coin Copier:
The basic routine involves a metal box which is referred to as a tiny counterfeiting machine. You dump the four coins out of the box; a Japanese coin, a Swiss coin, a British coin and a US coin. Using the Japanese coin as a sample each coin is placed in the box and one at a time, as the box is waved over the Japanese coin, the coin inside instantly turns into a duplicate of the Japanese coin. This is repeated until all four coins have turned into Japanese coins and everything is examinable.
