I'll keep this brief. I ordered a pair of spirit slates from eBay... the one with the magnetic flap... and it did not come with instructions.
Can anybody help me out with these? I kind of have an idea how it works but it doesn't seem to be functioning. Thanks |

Have you sent a message to the seller?

By not functions what do you mean? And do you know the maker of these? Feel free to PM me on this if it involves the gimmick. I make a lot of slates so maybe I can help.

You should have received a small something that would enable you to remove the gimmick. You then load the other slate with whatever you want to reveal, and place the removed gimmick on top of it. Gravity takes care of the rest.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Thanks everyone. I studied a bit of Cordina and actually watched Seance by Dixie Dooley ( popped up and Penguins open box deal). Admittedly not the most impressive DVD but it gave me what I needed regarding the spirit slates.
If I need any further assistance I know I have some great minds here to help me out. Thanks again |

Am I the only one who has gone to ungimmicked slates? I use a Karl Fulves handling and it’s never failed to impress! Of course if I had a nice set of locking slates I might go back to gimmickry

I use an ungimmicked method that Ray Carlyle taught at East Coast Spirit Sessions I. Fools 'em every time.

Yeah it’s the 1 through 4 numbering with chalk. I underestimated how convincing it is but after using it in my show, I’m a believer. Completely examinable after. I had several want to hold the slates after the show. Nothing to see but the spirit writing and the correctly numbered slates.
