These wooden cases by T Sparks look both functional and beautiful workmanship. They are on the high dollar side of the market. Does anyone have one of these beautiful cases for a review. cheerz

Gigrig.com is now down. I guess we both missed our opportunity to buy one of these beautiful cases. I think it was probably a hard sell: $300-500 for a wooden case (when many magicians, I would imagine, would tend to use that on books and effects) however it was always something that I liked and thought was so well designed. The back panel that opened. Hold outs. Coin and TT holders, and interior dividers.
My one concern, now that I think about it, is the wood. While gorgeous- I can tell you that my leather briefcase has been banged up so badly- simply by going from my house to car to gigs- that I can't imagine what my beautiful wooden case would have been through (I might have cracked it.) What would be interesting is, if T-sparks or someone with his permission and designs, could create the same case out of a hi-tech metal or plastic. For those who haven't seen one. The gig-rig was something you could carry, place on a tray stand, had all the "secret stuff," and you could use as a storage case and performance surface simultaneously. I've never seen one live but was a fan from the first time I saw the ads. If anyone knows anything else- or has one for sale- or wants to help forward the idea of getting the designer to fabricate one out of ABS, or something. Please do get in touch or post on here. M1 |

Last I saw the price was $1200.00. When the site was still up.

I do own one and have used it with great pleasure at almost all my events. I used to bring a small close-up case to work out of depending on the venue and client, and after buying the gig rig, I found it quite beneficial to bring it instead. That way I always had a table if the oppotunity arose to perform table magic and of course if your strolling then it was a great base to exchange material from. I thought it was expensive but thru the years have had no regrets with purchase.
