I'm really, really liking this. For once in my life, my instinct was right. I love the utter simplicity of the mechanics of the effect, and the ultra simple, trouble-free reset. Plus the cleanness of the trick overall. No fuss, no muss, no bother.

I just really, really like it.

Doug. You’ve sold it. Why the f##k would you want to over complicate things. It matters not one iota to the audience. Get a grip FFS. I feel sorry for those that think that they need to utilise a whole deck for this effect. Really. You need a change of career. Perhaps IT. I dunno, but seriously. Get a grip.

Hey Daffy, so you like this better than Sankey’s Astral Projection?

With Sankey’s can’t you use a signed card?

Don't get me wrong. I liked AP. Still do. But the simplicity of the set up and reset in OOTB trumps that, imho. I haven't done AP in a long time because I messed up the set-up (the cards got mixed up) and now it's gonna take me some time to go back to the DVD and re-learn the thing, and I don't really have the time to spare right now. So it sets on my table unused.

I do agree that the feature of being able to use a signed card is great, and I often like to employ that ruse whenever I can, but I don't know if it adds "that much" to the effect that it trumps the simplicity of OOTB.

With OOTB, it's pretty darn hard to mess up the set up, or to fix it if you do. Easy on the brain. Less to remember. Less "brain strain," and I like that, because I'm a busy guy, and believe me, my poor brain is stressed enough as it is!

Your mileage may vary.

I have bought the original but have now made it up with my mastermind deck . The spread is much better and wider as is the f.r.e it’s far less contrived imo Smile

Hey everyone...

Ok the only way I can offer an additional 26 cards is by charging almost the full price at least for the next few months due to the effect being so new.

The price for 26 indifferent cards is £25. What I include for free is that it can be ANY CARD VALUE that you like.

For instance if you want a 10H instead of the 9Spades we will CUSTOM PRINT these just for you on Bicycle Stock and setup the templates for free.

The only way we can do this is by clicking the QUOTE ME button at www.printbymagic.com/quote and just enter address and details and mention "OUT OF THE BLUE Café" and the value you would like on the cards.

This way you can either choose another set of 9S to make a full deck or have a 2nd force card to force from the top half one card and the bottom half another Smile.

Lead time to ship will be approx 3-4 days from each order. International shipping is £10 tracked and signed and UK £2.50

I then send you an invoice and we will get to work.

Any questions just ask.

Wider? I don’t think so somehow. Force card, yes. Spread, no way.

Got to thinking: I'm an ace at splitting cards. (No pun intended!)

Bet I could split a bunch of cards and make up gimmicks to suit my needs in a heartbeat,

You cannot do a wide spread with a mastermind deck.
