I just bought this yesterday and watched the DVD. It’s really good. Obviously I didn't get a chance to try it out because I didn't have the bills or the r***** ******, but I’m going out to get both today and put it together tonight. I will add later on about how the construction part goes and after a few runs give a review of it. I’m going to use five 1s to five 10s. Hey, I’m a teenager in high school living in the Bronx (New York City), last thing I need is for people to see me flash hundreds, especially since I’m only a slim 5'5 17 year old. But before I start this tonight can anyone give me any advice before I go about making this. How did your experiences go with the construction part???

Just follow the DVD instructions and everything should work out just fine. It takes about 10-15 minutes to assemble. Then make sure to let it dry and put something heavy on the money once it is assembled so that it fits the way you want. Also pre-fold the money to exact specifications so that you have no little edges sticking out from the bottom, although a few will be inevitable. Have fun.

Wow, I just finished making the gimmick. I didn't do it as "perfect" as I wanted it but it’s still pretty good. I’m going to handle it for a day or two before I test it on my little sister, then move up to my best friend, friends, family, strangers etc... like I normally do. I did the 1s to 10s. Maybe in about a year or so when I get really good with the gimmick and handling (and I’ve grown a few inches), I’ll move up to the big Benjamin’s. Anyone else use anything different or am I the only who won’t flash 100s in the street?

Hi UNREAL:
I too, made it from ones and tens. I'm still working on the handling... have shown it to a few friends. If I decide to put it into my performing repertoire, then I'll make the $505.00 investment. Ron |

I haven't heard of this. Any links to the effect?

Here's a couple of tips that I use.
1. Trim the inside bills (the inner (2) $1 and inner (2) $100 just a little so they don't stick out. 2. When you first show the $1s and $100s, push out the pack just a bit, then unfold them. It hides the ends. Greg suggests pushing the bills out after unfolding the bills. Paul |

I made mine up with old foreign currency and $1.00 bills... however, I still prefer the Fred Kaps version of Pat Page's "Easy Money" where I say, "when I travel I don't like anyone to see my cash, so I just carry these pieces of paper cut from a magazine. When I want to spend something... a flick... and I have cash, real money."

Pete, I have been through just about every thread in the magic Café on Hundy 500 or “slow burn” and you always seem to comment on how the effect is mediocre but you prefer Fred Kaps’s version better. What is the Fred Kaps version??? Is it just the same method except instead of one's to hundreds you get newspaper to ones? If this is the case I doubt the audience will give you a bigger "wow" then they would if you do ones to hundreds.

Follow the instructions and everything should work out just fine. … Approximately 10 minutes, no longer!

I find $1s to $100s a little overkill. I use $1s to $20s, where I then take some of the $20s and pay my restaurant bill.
