Hi Folks,
You may know, or may not know. There is a kids toy called stretchy string.It is made from some kind of rubber in bright colours. This string stretches up to 10 feet. I think it's made by a company called Hyper-Flex. They have a web site called http://www.HyperFlexClub.com. For the English Wolf fans I got it from John Lewis. This string is really cool, I'm going to put it straight in my shows for this weekend with the ABC machine stretchy chewy gum, mmm yum yum. Let me know what you think. All the best Louis |

Just a cou[le of notes for ABC owners. I have used this quite a bit, and love the prop. I did have an eight year old boy yell out in the middle of the trick that there was still something in the prop after I removed the tube. I don't know if he actually saw the tube inside, or was just commenting. He knew how many of the tricks I performed worked (vanishing coke bottle, pizza oven surprise, etc.), and was constantly shouting out explanations. I tried using him for some tricks where I knew he wouldn't have a clue (this silenced him temporarily), but some kids are just like that. He wasn't being mean or malicious, he is just at that age, and he had an amazing amount of knowledge of the tricks somehow. He yelled out that the gumballs weren't real, but was immediately stunned when I handed one to the birthday child, who verified it was real. I actually only replace one to three of the balls with real gumballs, because if the weight, giving this to the birthday child or to 2 or 3 children in the front row for a family show. I did a show which was a couple of hours from my house, and when it came time to produce the gumballs, I had a very difficult time getting the balls out. I assume that what happened was that with the real gumballs loaded into the chamber first, they were on top and due to the movement of the car they packed themselves tightly in, being slightly smaller than the plastic balls. To avoid this, I always loosen the stack once I arrive at the destination, to make sure they release easily. All in all, a great prop, as are all the props I've received from Chance.

Guess I'll never know what that is or is for, since that link doesn't seem to work for me.
