Hi all. I recently bought a losander basic floating table and have been loving it. However, I have been having troubles with the cloth. without going into to much detail in an open forum...After using he anti gravity box, when I go to grip the "you know what" with my right hand, I realize it has shifted and then it ends up making he cloth bunch up a lot on hat side and it pulls the cloth from the top of he able and it basically ruins the illusion. Whats going on here? Also.. the cloth does no lay on he table equally on both sides. On he back(the side I hold on to ) it leans off much more.. ???

I would blame it all on the person I bought it from, and then sell it for a profit in the illusions for sale section.....I have read some where recently that technique worked with a velocity illusion.

Very funny guys.... o close that issue.. the seller lied to me and told me it was a working prop. It was not and I had to take it to multiple people to get it into working order again. That seller,, which I will not name,, is a liar and swindler. And I did not sell it for any profit whatsoever..so please don't make accusations for which you have no basis on

Yep contacted him and he said that my cloth's hole was made in the improper place which is what is causing the issues. So I bought a new one and its on its way

Just want to take a second to say and confirm mr wmhegbli's post that Losander is really a class act and he was able to describe the issue very easily and answered all of my questions without a hitch a great guy

Call me crazy, but why didn't you just make a new hole? Neither are seen.

Have you had trouble with the fabric itself? I mean, getting the gimmick in place is sort of tough for me with that fabric. Honestly, a silk table cloth I had from another table was MUCH easier to use because the fabric was more silk-like and smooth. Have you noticed this issue? Apparently others have complained because he mentions it in his DVD, but it's still a slight issue for me.

My Floating Table comes with a a double cloth to conceal the gimmick. I found a foulard that has a better design and tried it without having to make an inner lining and it also works the same.
Do all of you use the double cloth for this effect?

If you plan to do this closeup then a double cloth is a must.
