Elliot Bresler's Switchcraft is a comprehensive and thorough treatise of the subject matter and it keeps getting added to. My latest addition to the book along with video demos has just arrived out the blue.

It's a great resource, a fantastic purchase and it keeps on getting bigger making it an even bigger resource and an even better purchase.

Switchcraft has been eating lots of McDonalds and has got bigger! don't know how it's got bigger and better because it's always been pretty huge.

The book is excellent and covers a huge array or material including impromptu mentalism, billet work, propless mentalism and well.. Lots!

I have picked one routine at random to talk about which is Mr Potatoe Head, this is a very clever kurotsuke style routine which is completely impromptu, you need a coin or any small object. Its passed between four hands by two participants, the magi turns his head, they pass it from hand to hand as many times in any direction - this can all be orchestrated by a third participant and when you turn back you will eliminate one hand at a time to locate the coin with no guess work. It's very clever and well routined with room to add your own spin. It is material suitable for a working magician/mentalist and the armature and enthusiast will love performing this too.

Switchcraft is going to keep me busy for the rest of the year and I'll be performing lots of the material.

Psychologia by Ken Krenzel has took a classic mentalism principle/principle and flipped it on its head and he has done a really good job at it. The magicians in my society will really enjoy watching this. Very clever.

Kind regards,

Joel

Has anyone called the Guinness people yet?

Just received yet another addition to this excellent ebook. (No36) The book keeps getting bigger and the high quality remains the same.

Thanks again for the continued updates.

This investment just keeps getting better.

For anyone who's been printing these chapters and binding them together, Walgreen is having a sale on hernia trusses.

I didn't receive any more updates... is this intentional?

I contacted Elliott directly via pm, let's see

I’ve been super busy for a while – working 70+ hour weeks – so I have not had a chance to spend much time on the boards.

However, I just visited and happened to spot these posts.

“I didn't receive any more updates... is this intentional?”

“I contacted Elliott directly via pm, let's see”

Then nothing?

I don’t like it, as it gives the impression that I did not respond and resolve the matter, which is not the case at all.

In fact, over the course of many PM’s back-and-forth, I was provided with four email addresses and two names.

None were on my mailing list.

Finally I was provided a 5th email address, which was on the list - and has been receiving the complimentary supplements all along.

But the name associated with that email address wasn’t even close to either of the 2 names I was provided.

Having no time to continue going back and forth, I sent Sicorace the requested 26 e-books, which I wrote over the last 10 years of my life.

You’re welcome.

Elliott

Sorry Elliott, you are right, I've been busy too and I completely forgot about this post.
you've been super supportive via pm's.

On the other hand, I didn't insult you or wrote some innuendos, I just post "let's see", and I meant "probably he doesn't check this post that often, I'll send a pm that will alert him via email" - that's all. if somebody (like you did) had wrote something here, I would have explained that yes, you did came back to me and provided support.

So, again, I apologize for the back and forth and the lack of updates, after I thanked you via pm it slipped from my mind.

No problem, Sicorace.

I started making serious efforts to squeeze in some time.

I managed to send out a Mind Blasters USA supplement last night, and made some serious progress on a Switchcraft supplement today. I think I should be able to complete it in no more than 1 week – probably less.

Elliott

As everyone has already mentioned, this is a terrific work. What's your guys' favorite contribution from this e-Book? I know it's hard to choose just one.

There is so much good material and techynique here it is hard to choose which to use until presented with a aituayion demanding it or a variation so you arte not using the same "trick" twice.

I got my copy originally before Elliott had issued any appendixes (or is it Appendici?) and had updated years ago with his first additions before I became too ill to work. Looking at the list above, I realized I was behind and contacted him. he got back to me me immediately with the updates. New routines and ideas always welcome -- I am finishing the reading this long weekend and cannot recommend Elliott's work enough.....

ELLIOT IS THE BEST.
His customer service is impeccable. I suffered a personal tragedy and lost my computer and copy of Switchcraft. He was kind enough to replace it at no charge.
This is a 100 out of 10. if you want to take your mentalism to the next level, nothing is more practical and full of great techniques and refinements than this book.
an absolute best buy and a work of love, by a great person, to boot! it is a must buy

Thank you so much, guys!

I should mention that since my last post on this thread, 4 Switchraft supplements and 2 Mind Blasters USA supplements were sent out.

Special thanks go to Jay Jennings and Ron Chavis for writing it the last two Switchcraft supplements.
