| Topic: Double pipped cards? |
|
||
|
Does anyone know where I can get an entire deck full of double pipped cards, like the type used in B-Wave or similar tricks, that is bicycle cards where the 7 of spades for example, is double pipped to also be the 7 of clubs and so on? Steven |

Try this: http://www.cardsbymartin.com/ if he can't do it, no one can. Niall |

| An entire deck like the above would be quite expensive. |

The cards used in B'Wave don't really function as you describe. Because the cards are face cards they function more like split cards. I don't recall ever seeing a misindexed card like the one you describe. Most misindexed cards are "off by one" cards. A six of clubs on one end and a seven on the other for example. If you are just looking a a lot of (ratehr than a full 52 card deck) of misindexed cards Dan Harlan and Daryl use them in their marketed cards across tricks. |

| Andy Nyman's trick Dead of Night uses such a thing, if I recall correctly. I believe it's available at Alakazam.co.uk - and it was on sale as of a couple of days ago. |

I would have thought someone sold a whole deck of double pips, strange I think... I would like kings, queens and jacks only really... Anyone else have any suggestions for buying them in larger quantities? Steven |
|

| Some of the Gaff decks have a few in them.. check with CAJ |

I also wanted the same as haywire. I ended up geting the Caj deck. The deck has 6 or seven "split cards"on it (mine were kings). You also get a couple other odd "split" cards(i.e. monte, and a double faced jack with it being split on both sides). I hope this helps. You also get some of the coolest and strangest gaffs I have ever seen. jordan |

Haywire, Did you ever find the double piped cards you were looking for? Nick |
|
||
| I believe a gaff decks comes with some double pipped cards. Not sure though. Other than that I don't know where to get these. |
|
||
| If you cant find them make 'em youself |
|
||
| Don't you need a special tool to help make these? I saw this once at a website but not sure if it was true? |

You do not need a special tool to help make these. I have ones I have made myself but there is nothing like ones that are actually printed...and that is what I am looking for. I would like cards with just one corner pip changed and not split diagonally. Nick |
