There are a couple of other videos but they are hard to find. If you ever want to sell this one let me know I've been in the market for some time.

Hi
Tube out is a copy of a French illusion, invented by DOMINIQUE DEGA which called TRANSLUCUBE . it is a illusion often seen here in france, cause Dominique Dega has published his plans in the past , and PARIS MAGIC (Guy Lore) was the seller during lots of years . Now PARIS MAGIC is closed , and a version is sold by CLIMAX (but it is bad version, because it don't respect the original plan. Don't buy it). The real translucube is deceptive. The american builder has just copied it and sell it ! Too bad Dominique Dega died in 2006, and I think he hasn't own any money for his merite.... |

Stephane_arnow is right there are a few videos on youtube under the Translucube search.
I would be interested in obtaining a set of plans for this, are they still available and written in english?

Hi 61magic
I haven't seen the plans, but I think it is in french (which is easy to convert; centimeter in inches is easy with sofwares on internet; and it will give you a little work this time to convert french to english; it change a bit ;-) I actually don't know where getting or buying this plan. Maybe it is in a old MAD MAGIC MAGAZINE , but even not sure. Too bad PARIS MAGIC has closed the door; their version was perfect and not too expensive. I think that the effect has been overdone in france ( every local magician has done it, specially with the cheap and bad version sold by Climax). But not sure the illusion is so well known in other countries. That is an excellent effect, by the way, specially if you give a theme in the decoration / looking. Mine was in Far west theme. My box was painted like false wood with holes of guns fire; like a saloon.At the climax point, he girl hand was appearing on the top with a Gun, and Bang bang ! ! I have performed it often. And the prop allows to do a costume change at the end, cause it is not an so hard to perform for the girl. With painting as a big DIE , like an old house, a Carousel, a spider - halloween looking, an oriental temple etc... IT is an effect interesting if you do custom painting and if you give a theme to the illusion . Better than the classic white box... Other interesting point, the original model is build to be completly breakable and pack flat ...and very quick to set up. I have a friend who know how to build it. I think I have one builder friend able to do it too . But here is Europe. I will ask to know where finding the plans. If I find it, I will inform you cheers stephane |
