OK done deal. Thanks all! These will be the initial test pieces at a discounted price. If all goes well, I expect them to be a major item. The 'special something' IS very special and quite costly so I don't know what the price will be IF I decide to make them available. Only 7 will be done this time because 3 of the 'special somethings' got stuck to lord knows what and I can't find them. Geesh. Hopefully I'll be able to get more of them. Unknown at this time.

Only bumping this because I got a couple of emails asking for pictures of the Monkey Paw...evidently folks not noticing that they are posted in the above post.

Well my (very) hairy paw arrived today, and already I've had twiching its way across the dining table. I think in candle light this will look extremely unsettling; the tale is told, right up the shambling footsteps outside the door. All goes silent. The paw twitches, there are three heavy thumps at the (real) door, and the candle suddenly goes out...

Yep! Behind in getting them out but a couple of big projects taking time to complete. My actual work time has be shaved in half lately due to the 'ancient miserys'.

I have been playing with this and come up with a haunted paw movement just like the key - I.e. The paw will turn over slowly in one's palm. I've videoed the movement but not had time to decide& upload. Will try to do after the weekend.

Fantastic idea Dr. Steve ! That should really freak a spectator out.
Inspired me to research great apes, primates and old world apes with which to create a story. Thanks to you and thanks to Doug for the creative kick start. Kotah |

I need to hear from those who ordered the Power Paw. I don't want to re-order the 'special somethings' unless you guys think they are worth while. Dr. Steve obviously likes his. So eMail or PM me with your thoughts.

I got mine a few days ago, and I still can't put it down. I have been constantly thinking of new ideas for tricks using the paw (including what I think is an origonal idea that is an acceptable substitute for a ch***e b*g and might reveal it in the Crypt after working out a few kinks) and finding ways to incorperate the paw into a few existing effects, as well as experimenting with the effects from "Midnight in the dark Museum".
I also recently got 3 no Evil. these are my first 1st-hand experiences with Doug's work, and I am amazed. I will be buying more from Doug in the near future.

Oh, and Doug, if you do decide to market these on your site, 2 small suggestions, and these might be a matter of personal taste, they would be to make the paw a little smaller (so it would be a little easier to move, as I do not have an M5 system as of yet, I had been using a PK ring that can effectivley twitch the paw and a strong, but large, magnet that will really move the paw). The other suggestion would be to make the paw with the hand open, as most presentations that would use the paw would revolve around the wishes, if the performer has yet to make a wish, then the fingers would be extended. Again, this is probably a personal quirk, and a small one at that.

I've not got one, though it does sound great - going on from what has been said, maybe a paw with one extended finger? (obviously not the middle one!)...
so it could slowly turn and point at someone or something? and have the rest of the fingers slightly open, to place an object or an envelope or something inside it?
I've asked to be banned
