Hi all,
I am currently performing a brief borrowed ring and string routine, with the ring ending in an 'impossible location.' I currently use clifton's ring move to steal the ring and load it, but am interested in learning some additional options. Any suggestions/resources? I am not interested in using a reel or a TT to vanish the ring. Thanks. Dave S |

I use one of Roy Roth's Ring Grinders
Harbin used a dupe ring sewn in corner of a handkerchief. The lady is holding the handkerchief and can feel "her" ring thru the cloth. When whisked away, ring is gone. DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE THE STRENGTH OF THIS.

I have a shoelace and ring routine where the ring, knotted on the lace, vanishes from a lace. The handling of the empty string and coin sleights give the impression of a "complete vanish".
Sleeving would also allow the show of truly empty hands and allow a quick recovery. To me an "impossible location" would be on the specs finger, on their person under or in something that has been in view and untouched the whole time and they open it. I've considered it being found in 'nest of boxes' or a ring box via switches, wine glass stem, key ring, under or in something any which has been in view and apparently untouched the whole time but currently have no final solution. Good luck and keep at it. |

Just curious, as to why you want to replace the Cliftons ring move?? You say you don't want to use a reel or a pull to vanish it, then you either have to lap, sleeve or palm it away - I can't see how any of these methods will be more deceptive than the Cliftons Ring Move - so still just curious. The Clifton brings it directly in fingerp..m, meaning it is a natural movement without any detours. If you lap or sleeve it you have to use extra movements to pick the ring up again. I'm still just curious - or is it just so that you are curious for new methods.

When I bring out the nest of boxes the "trick is done", however to the spectator it's only starting. They are holding the ring/coin in the handkerchief and they can see the brass box on the table/or in a spectators hand. Don't rush this part, build the suspense and let the ring vanish slowly. However, for this discussion with a ring on string routine, it will be kind of changing the choreography to bring in a handkerchief. |

Thanks for all of your help!
The vanish with a hankerchief is a great suggestion. Thanks Mr. Biro! As Vraagaard mentioned, I'm not sure how to tie it into the R&S routine that I am already doing. Something to think about.... Please keep the suggestions/references coming. Thanks! |

Well, you could link the two effects by doing the House Key through the ring, which uses a handkerchief. (And a folding key from Porper)! [blatant plug]

One of our fellow members, Vinny Martinez, shared a move with me. I love doing the move. I think Vinny said that Flip showed it to him. Vinny also has a couple very good DVD's.
You might PM Vinny and ask him about it. (You get the ring off the string secretly, and it doesn't even look like your fingers go all the way to the end of the string). Killer move! |
