The dies are normal size. Also it comes with a bigger die that can be used as a finale load.

Just a thought ... this must be good as it's something you never see posted on " tricks and effects for sale or trade"

I recently purchased this from Axel when in Blackpool. I had the pleasure of watching this as a 'one to one' Demo/Performance.
There was no 'Pressure to buy' dilemma going on, he simply enjoyed performing it and I had decided to buy this long before. Got the bargain of Convention prices which was nice.

The result was just pure and simple joy with lots of laughter. I'm branching out from performing mostly card stuff and what a great way to venture forth.
I will surely enjoy the many practice sessions that lay ahead while I remain inspired by his talent.

Has anyone changed the supplied cup? It’s not that easy to get a lemon of a decent size in the cup (I’d like to stick with using lemons). . I like the idea of a leather dice cup, but would love one slightly larger to take a slightly larger lemon. I haven’t found anything suitable online, but wondering if anyone can recommend something??

Thank you

Mark

For my first post (bizarrely as I've been a member since 2005, what can I say I like to think before I post) I came straight to a Chop Cup page as it has been my favourite piece of magic since I was a kid.

Whilst I used to perform quite a bit my job (and life) caused a "pause" in performing. Having now decided to hit play again my Chop Cup was the first thing I reached for.

I had been experimenting with variations of it as over the past couple of years I've seen so many people buy a cheap Chop Cup from eBay, thus knowing the secret, I thought it was time to move things on.

Particularly as one such person will be at a gig I'm due to perform at. Thank you Doug for your review and input, I shall be investing in this over the summer and blowing the mind of my friend who will be convinced they know how it's done.

Hi friends! Doug here. I have been playing with Just A Cup since it got here today. This is exactly what I thought it was, plus a BONUS! An ingenious way to show your hands completely EMPTY before (and sometimes during) showing the effect! This method is indetectible!

An absolute DREAM, Just A Cup! So simple, yet FLOORS laypeople! I can fool Chop Cup people using this method! The thing I like is, it solves the problem I had back in 2001, with the setup. I could NOT show my hands EMPTY. With this system, you CAN. And, it's "portable". I have two more effects using this principle.

I have been asked time and again, "Can I use a PK ring?" The answer is NO. Not the same thing. This is a whole new POWER Axel has discovered. I need to look into this more. I had to laugh. The "Finger Breaking" sound effect is BRILLIANT! Takes practice to get the timing right. But MAN! Does it sound GROSS! Crunch!

Had 'that' same thought last night. No is also the answer.
Just a great routine and beautifully made.
Bought mine in 2010. I see it now comes with extra dice.
