For Those Interested In the year 2008 - 2009, Rich Hennessey (nick at the Café - 'RicHeka') created a TK Pen known as 'Fail Safe TK Pen'. The pen was made using a Bic Pen. Later it was also made using a Sharpie. The Fail Safe TK Pen had some very typical and interesting characteristics. The pen could do three consecutive actions viz - Tip, Roll & Fall in the direction the performer so desired.

However one might like to checkout the YouTube videos) IMO, the Fail Safe TK Pen remains one of the finest TK effects based on a simple pen that could also write. Back on topic please. P.S. Rich Hennessey passed away in Nov 2015. Great Ustaad I did not know who. was the mind behind this trick. well done

I would prefer this "Fail Safe TK pen" than the sharpie, because pens are much more organic than sharpies http://www.geocities.com/highservertech

Strange Jimmy New user 82 Posts	Posted: May 11, 2019 04:20 am 0 Runic sold out in 24 hours but will be getting more back in stock.
highmagic Veteran user 399 Posts	Posted: May 11, 2019 08:55 am 0 Couldn't find anywhere that "Fail Safe TK pen" for sale... The fact that its creator is dead doesn't help. Jimmy I hope you will produce an ordinary pen version of Runic. Pens are much more organic, in real life situations people don't carry sharpies http://www.geocities.com/highservertech

markhitton Special user 964 Posts	Posted: May 11, 2019 01:14 pm 0 Interesting effect. I like the turning of the marker
markhitton Special user 964 Posts	Posted: May 11, 2019 01:16 pm 0 Is it self contained or I need something external to activate the turning?
markhitton Special user 964 Posts	Posted: May 11, 2019 07:38 pm 0 Any reviews?

Besides the roll, can the pen be made to tip-over and fall? I know if it was so, it would be on the demo vid . . . but still asking. MAGIC is a SECRET, without the SECRET there is no MAGIC.

Hustler2014 New user 62 Posts	Posted: May 12, 2019 02:52 pm 1 In your video there where you wave your hands over it to make it move - is that absolutely neccesary, or can you do this with your hands nowhere near the pen? I have a use for this in my card act, but I don't do mentalism style mysterious 'waves' over things, so just wondering if I can set this up to move without requiring any of that type of presentation...

In the trailer you can see me at a table not making any moves with my hands. So yes it's possible not to wave your hands over the sharpie.
Hustler2014 New user 62 Posts	Posted: May 12, 2019 05:51 pm 1 Thanks and apologies, I hadn't seen the trailer!
