I thought you guys would enjoy these cun cups I came up with....
Have a look! http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l296/r......1869.jpg Bamboo cups, a bamboo wand and a bag made out of banana leaves. They don't stack at all but they are quite fun to work with http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l296/r......1867.jpg a cocowood jar that I use as a chop cup. It has some nice qualities that would allow you to do multiple loadings http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l296/r......1863.jpg one of my favorites! A bamboo shank that is not chopped but gives a similar effect. I love this very much! http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l296/r......1860.jpg Finally my coco-mudo bowl. This has a built in quality that allows me to load and do some interesting displays that would not make the specs think any load took place. Hope it sparked some ideas for you guys! Best from Manila, rannie PS. I shall post a video of how I play with them soon! Have fun y'all!

Hmmmm, I have a huge stand of bamboo behind my house. . . I may not be around for a few days.
What would Wavy do?

I often overlook natural props that are "easy" to get, I should move away from my computer and keep my eyes open outdoor.

I really like the wand. How do you think these cups will stand up to changes in humidity before they develop cracks?

Wow, Very nice, Rannie.
Do the odd shapes hinder cups moves in any way?

Thank you fellas. Those sets are actual cups /bowls that I use. The 4 cups set with the bag is wonderful to play with. They do not stack, so some of the standard cups and balls moves are not possible. Regarding Aiki's question about its reaction to changes in humidity.... I live in a tropical environment and they do hold up well. Its a matter of me choosing the right bamboo. These are great cups to have as a conversation piece..... the best part is that it really is a working set.
The wand looks great and it feels great. I think I should add some more weight , as some magicians prefer weighted wands like me. Although I always had bamboo wands.... I am contstantly looking for ways to make them better. The single bamboo shank is my fav. Very strong ....almost like a real man's cup...LOL! MICK!!! Can't wait hermano.... Rannie
