You can still build one that can be done surrounded, I sat down and tinkered with that idea and it is possible! This is the creative part that I love about performing and now since I just expanded my shop I am building so many illusions I will have to get a bigger warehouse when they are done!

You just gave me an idea. I from one of the posts they talked about a product known as glow wire. it can be found on theatrefx's website and many others if you search google. it is very portable and is very bright.

Lusion - I am wanting to build a shadow box that I also want to show from all sides. I was thinking about uses a base. you mention that it can be done without a base. would you mind sharing your idea? This would be my first illusion. I have a shadow box illusion plan, and I am wanting to get the woodbury video # 1 on bases. I will take any help in the best way to do this. thanks...
