Hansel,
With a white silk there is some exposure! Bob Sanders Magic By Sander |

With Neilsen gimmick I think the exposure is minimal if any. I have seen it done with red and white silks.

Are we talking about the Neilson "Spider" gimmick?

How about Tony Clark's Silk Rose gimmick? Any thoughts on it?

There are a number of ways to prepare the Rose to silk, Tannen Magic use to sell a vase with flower.
Shimada has a version on his DVD that does not use a gimmick that sticks out. It still boils down to what you want to use according to your costume/clothes. |

I think quite safe using white silk for Tony Clark's gimmick.

Yes, Tony's gimmick would be very deceptive with a white silk. I'm wondering how durable it is going to be, and if there is a way to repair it if it breaks.

Does anyone know a good way of folding the silk to make it look real? Every time I see anyone do it, it looks just like what it is... a rolled up silk.

Start by folding the silk into a strip about 2"x18". Then roll it. Place it in the spider. Then by pulling and tucking make the outsides first and work toward the center of the rose. With a little practice, you'll surprise yourself!
Bob Sanders Magic By Sander PS --- a 24" silk will look better than an 18" silk |

Mtpascoe,
Check out P&A silks dvd "Why Not Silks " volume #5. It shows how to make the gimmick and how to fold the silk. |

Regan,
My Tony Clark version appears to be made of the same material that Loops is made of.
Be remembered for performing what looks like MAGIC, not skill.

James, mine is made from a clear elastic. How long have you had yours? I cannot imagine that mine will hold up for very long. I am just wondering if I will be able to find a suitable replacement elastic,. Even if I do, I'm not sure if I can repair it.

Had it over a year.
It may be larger than the Loops material after second look. Should be easy to find elastic thread, I will contact Tony.

James, I ran across some clear, elastic bands today while Christmas shopping. They are actually hair bands, that came in either clear or black. They may be slightly larger than the original, but I bought a pack anyway. Even if they fit I'm not sure if the installation and tie will be possible. I have not really examined Tony's gimmick closely, but it seems that it would to be a difficult fix....if for no other reason than it's small size.

I have even know magicians to use the line cord from weed-eaters found in garden shops.
