Should I post the handling somewhere? or is it obvious enough? I can easily put it in a password protected area on my site...

Thanks BTW Chris!
I have a video that doesn't expose the working of the box but shows the switch It is currently in the members only site for "Q" but I think it would benefit anyone who owns or uses the Mystery Box.
Again this doesn't expose the actual mechanics or the mechanics of Q
You can go to http://www.cosmosolano.com/cafetutor to check it out!

Thanks for sharing the move and mechanics. As I said, it looks awesome, you really can't tell.

Q and the Kennedy box were made for each other. Smile

Looks fantastic.

Mystery Box is a worker for sure.
I would never use it as a prediction of a card for the simple reason,i would be changing something that is impossible to something that's not.
John does make a box for producing a peice of paper which works really good for mentalism as long as you know how to get the most out of it.
I got three of these wonderful boxes.

Someone brought up showing the box empty first (on a different thread) interesting thought, any ideas or thoughts on that? to quote:
"Depends on how you are presenting the effect. If it's a 'magic trick,' sure, you could take this approach. But if it's a prediction/mindreading effect, then why would the box be empty to begin with?"
It actually makes a lot of sense if it's a signed, folded card that you show the box empty first. Hmmm I'll be playing with this today!

When I used the box, I preferred to use a red deck and a blue mystery box ( or the other way around ). Force a blue back card ( you can show it as red back with a DL ) and show the prediction in the box is a blue back card from another deck. It keeps them from getting ahead ( 'that's my card' sort of thing ).
