On all the models they camouflage the frame. Couldn't it be that the frame is flexible but the mirror is not, and the frame has the power to flex the mirror when it is within the frame? Which presentation would work in a magic show, that both the frame and mirror are flexible when hidden from view, or just the mirror flexes? ... There doesn't seem to be any logic concerning the frame, as I see it. Just ran accross this. See video at 4:33. How about them apples?! Is there any better reason for the frame than it is a door with the mirror embedded? Fantasio was just so creative.

Hayre Regular user Arkansas 195 Posts	Posted: Apr 16, 2022 07:34 pm 0 To revive this topic a bit. Some claim Henning removed the mirror from the top slot. Others claim he dad a side slot which he used to remove the mirror, as well as top slot audience was unaware of, that was necessary for the working. I modified a Mikame to match the latter, but it was a bit 'Flexi' with so much frame removed. So, then I rewatched the Henning videos. Is it possible that he had a top slot only, but he turned the frame vertically to remove the mirror from the side (and replace it) ?? It plants the thought that the mirror can only be removed/inserted from the side, or that it has a side slot ??

By the way the Wellington version is the very best version made! www.cesaral.com Sales Manager for Cesaral Magic
