Back in 2002 my father and I developed the adjustable chop cup and combo cup balls. Since then Wellington Enterprises and Sherwood Magic took my father's and mine idea
without even crediting either one of us. Well for the past month I've been prototyping a new gaffed ball system that is still adjustable. The difference? It adjusts it's self. Yes,
no more tinkering pushing the gaff through the other side of the ball. It adjusts itself. So far 9 different chop cups and combo cups combined work with this new ball.

They still have a bit more of modifications to make, but soon you'll just be able to use your gaffed balls with all your gaffed cups.

Intriguing idea!
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.

Hmm...my question is, how strong is the gaff? I have one chop cup and ball set where the gaff is a bit too strong for some moves.

The gaff I created with this along with a couple of other factors and parts adjusts the gaff in the ball for just the right pull automatically. There is no adjustment needed.
I was particularly happy when I found out they work with Ken Brooke chop cups, since the gaff in the cup is almost direct and when the ball was used it gave just the
right amount of attraction to the cup and released without having to slam it down or use any type of force.

They are pretty much ready. So far the self adjusting balls work with 43 different chop cups and combo cups.

I don't have them up publicly for sale. I don't mean to start any crap, but 2 vendors have already clipped my and my father's idea with these. I asked them to credit me
and both gave very ugly responses. So I'm not publicly selling them. RNT2 of course has the right to sell them, but the other 2 were just plain ignorant about it.

If you would like a set Mobius just PM me.
