Has anyone found a commercially available 'ice-tray' in Bicycle size to make the mold for this trick? Ammar's video recommends using a box for paneling tacks or something, but a quick trip to the Home Depot revealed nothing that size in plastic. I suppose I could use bridge size if I had to, but I really like to do all of my effects with Bikes. Thanks in advance!

I have been able to find a box of panel nails from Wal Mart to use. I originally could not find them at Home Depot as well. Hope this helps.

I would recommend taking a playing card there and then just eyeballing the container. I remember I went through such an adventure and I picked up a container that worked, but can't remember what it was. 10 minutes in the nail/screw aisle should do the trick. Don't forget the card!!
Have you found a situation to perform this effect? Great trick, just not very practical.

how about a cigarette tin?
the one's that you store bakky in(Tobacco). You know the roll you own variety.
They are about them same size as poker sized deck (thats what I keep mine in to keep them in shape).

Or Why dont you get some modelling clay and just make a mold yourself?
bish bash bosh, how long can it take.???

What is the effect of this trick?

Joebob: The basic effect is: Choose a card, tear the card up, vanish the pieces except for one, and have the restored card (except for the saved piece) appear inside the card case, literally encased in a block of ice. It's in 'The Magic of Michael Ammar' book.

sounds like a intercessor revelation.......

As wayman suggests, you could just make a mold for it... Use some plasticene, take a mold of it in plaster or resin...
"bish bash bosh"
Bonus: In between freezing with the mold, try coating it in a couple of layers of latex (or rubber adhesive) and make a stretchy or compressable deck shell... Hope I'm not stepping on anyones magical toes with that one...
