Either that, or you will have to custom order them. I have some sets that have three chop cups. Lee's idea beats all of them, though.

The chopped balls do not "try to mate" and can be handled normally. Only 3 of the 5 cups are used in performance. The extras were ordered to have a set of 3 regular cups in addition to the 1 or 2 combo arrangement. Mating balls do not have to be a problem. MR
Repeating a falsehood often and loudly does not make it true.

Older balls used to have a different gimmick in them that allowed handling as normal and it was the cup that had part that caused problems.
I would think you can get someone to gimmick the things right you wouldn't have a problem at all. I did some digging and found three older balls that still work great in this way. Kent your routine still works with these older style balls. Mobius |

Not exactly. This is discussed here:
http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......forum=37 Balls by Uday, Bazar and Tim Star are like the ones you refer to.

I've just now gotten back into magic, and when I was really into cups and balls in my youth I had always dreamed about owning a beautiful copper set like these. Of course I had trouble paying for a new deck of bikes when I was 14, so something like this wasn't an option.
The RNTII Mendoza cups look amazing! I love the fact that the chop cup is impossible to tell from the other two. Honestly, I don't even want to order them if it'd be too much of a burden on Jake. Health and happiness should be his first priority. I sure do like the idea of holding a set of my own though. |

Epiphany is now running the company.
Feel free to inquire about them. Welcome back to magic. Mobius |

Thanks Mobius, I'm having a blast relearning everything. I would very much like to own one of these sets. I foresee an order in the near future.

If you go to the English language part of their site, they have prices listed in USD, Euro and Sterling, but like I said, the chop cup isn't listed on the English side of the site. Probably best to go to an online currency converter and translate the kroner into USD. G

I bought a Bazaar De Magica set from http://www.magicmagic.co.uk a few years ago and it has served me well and I'm happy with it. It came with a couple of routines which had some useful ideas.

Never too late! I do Cups and Balls production from my chop cup. Meaning... producing three cups and balls from one cup. Pretty neat.

I have to say, I love my new Mendoza combo set. It really is a pleasure to handle and, if possible, made me even more enthusiastic about performing the cups and balls.
