Not sure if I am in the right section, however I recently viewed the Bill Abbott DVD, and got my first taste of Chico the Mind Reader. To make a long story short, I plan to start working on a hand puppet routine, and I am curious to the prop Bill Abbott uses to house Chico and his props in. It appears to be a briefcase on top of a table... I assume attached since he is leaning on it pretty good. I was wondering if his table/case is custom made, or can you buy it or something similar? I found a eureka table with attached close up case at Elmwood Magic for $80, however the case looked thin 4", and overall the table looked a little fragile to be leaning your hand and puppet on. Anyone have any ideas?

I think the complete set...table...props and routine used to be available at Hocus Pocus Magic Shop...
