I seached Knot Funny looking for possible modifications and found an older post praising it.
http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......forum=17 I too love Knot Funny! But I am having trouble keeping mine together. I've had it for two years now, probably used it twenty times. But from the start it just doesn't seem to be holding together. Actually I've stopped using it because it keeps falling apart. I'm thinking of just building it out of wood. But wanted to see what you guys did as work arounds/modifications. #1 The top lid won't stay on. The tape "hinge" just won't stay. I guess I'll find some red tape and retape it. #2 The plastic caps on the tubes seem to split very easily. Where can you buy caps? #3 Anybody already replace the dollar snatchers with something better? What did you use? Thanks! DeW |

I have retaped the hinge. I put tape on the inside too, it really helped! I've had no trouble with the cap spliting. I just wonder if you got a bad batch. I would contact your dealer (hocus pocus?) and see if they will replace your caps or if you could buy some cheap. I don't see why you would need to replace the dollar snatchers. The one on the rope I use as a throw away gag. The kids see the string and I pretend not to, then I discover it. In the process of discovering the reel and string I let the rope fly back and "hit me in the face." The second one, I've had to reglue to the box but that's all. I use mine for every show. I bet it's done 400 shows or more with only those modifications.

I have used mine quite a bit and the only problem I had was the little lever that held the bottom on kept getting loose and when you lifted it up the bottom would fall off, so I rigged up a piece of velcro and iit works fine, it does sound like you just got a bad batch with the box falling apart and the caps splitting! I would contact them!
