I have to agree that Camirand Academy makes a very good and useable tube for 18-inch silks. Check it out at:
http://www.camirandmagic.com/ Look for item number Item number: AC-001. Item number RT-036 will give you the dye tube and a booklet of Gary Ouelett’s routines. In all it is a very good prop.

I seldom see magicians using diamond cut silks in dye tubes. Why not?
The 18" diamond cut silk will work in dye tubes designed for 12" square silks! They look like a 24" square silk and that is four times the size of a 12" square silk. Another option for dye tubes made for 12" square silks is the 4"x36" streamer. It looks huge compared to a 12" square. It is also easier to read a message from a 3 foot streamer than a 12" square silk! Another possibility with silks and dye tubes that I seldom see discussed is using Sharpie Pens on silks to make your very own personalized routines employing a dye tube. Take a shot at it! It costs close to nothing extra and really helps you deliver your own show! Bob Sanders Magic By Sander |

Since you did your lecture at our club, several of the guys have done some great sharpie artwork on their silks.

Magic Ian,
Maybe we should have a "Sharpie on Silk" magic art show sometime? I would love to see what others have done. Bob Sanders Magic By Sander |

Bob,
Both Jay Scott Berry and the great Gen Grant use diamonds in their routines. The 1st time I saw Grant's I said to myself that the 24" silk he used would not allow him to make the effect work. I finally paid attention and noticed that it was a 18" diamond.
Be remembered for performing what looks like MAGIC, not skill.

I have always used a Morrissey tape dye tube for a sucker color change (Pat Page routine), but have just come across the Vernet Plastic one that is slightly egg shaped with a tube coming off of each end. I love the way it handles and I use 2 18 inch diamond cut silks, plus the plastic flesh color goes all the way through the whole tube so no paint to chip. I just ordered 3 more for the next fair season.
You might look into those.
