The goshman growing ball only comes in red.
I need a green one(a giant pea) for a kids trick.
Is there any way to turn a solid green 6inch into a "growing ball"
so it folds to a 2inch??

Yes, you can purchase a red Growing Sponge Ball, then make your green sponge ball just like the red one.

Why not ask Magic by Gosh to make you one or a dealer that carries his products (I think David Ginn for example is close to magic by gosh so maybe ask him)

I have had good success using Rid Brand clothing dyes to hand dye sponge balls, not super bright vibrant, but it does the job.

Bill, I tried...with scissors..to make a green one...looks terrible.

Tristan Magic...magic by gosh does not seem to exist as a company...i googled but could find nothing...I doubt if they would make a one off but I could ask

Patrick1515...yes that is an idea...not ideal but worth investigating

thanks all

I would contact Eddie Ace from Pittsburgh. I am sure he could make up what you need. He does great work on carving sponges.

A link to the Barry M product is

http://www.barrymitchellproducts.com/sto......06052903

It is not exactly what you want..but I find I can still create the illusion that the ball is getting bigger/growing.

Richard ..thanks for the name...if I have a specific idea..I now have a resource.

It is good to give and receive here at the Café.

Eddie carved a set of little caesers for a guy who landed a job with the pizza chain because of it. He is a really artist and a nice guy. Tell him I said hi.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
