Who would have thought your could produce 4 Aces bare sleeved?
Lee is a great person - to see his blog and website gives you a good
idea as to who he is.
I own Thunderbird too. I haven't quite got it down 100% YET (only because I have a few other projects going on, including a townspeople role in "Music Man" for the next few weeks.
Check out his video. The pdf download does an excellent job explaining how to do this. The fact that he already speaks English means that the translation process is one step easier to decipher...

Magician Terry Jensen - Google Video
magic terry jensen - Google Video
Terry is a great friend of mine. Very instrumental on assembling
The 10 Principles eBook ... What? You DON'T have it?
I specifically made it VERY inexpensive so you could get one!
remember: money back if you think it sucks... !!!
Terry has been doing magic for many years. In fact,
he has studied everything, has every book (and can quote
page and verse on most things...)
He called me up one day and asked me if I knew any
young kids who want to be in a video he's shooting. We both laughed for a minute until I realized he was serious!
Notice in the film that when the band starts singing, people aren't paying attention. When the magician comes in, then the fun is had, and the band is being heard by the crowd.
Watch Terry as he steals 2 things: a watch, and a necklace.
By the way, he really can steal that stuff. He does a pick-pocket show that is truly amazing.
Terry, when you see this... good job mate!

Book Review: JB BoBo's Modern Coin Magic and the French Drop
Reviewed: Modern Coin Magic
by JB Bobo - 1982 - 386 pages
If you ever buy a book on coin magic– this is the one to put on the shelf AND used. Not only does it contain some of the best coin routines, but it also uses magician lingo. And coin magic lessons. I can't stress how important it is to learn the lingo early on. A lot of magic tricks you'll buy throughout your lifetime will have our "special words" without explanations.
Words like:
•French Drop
•Double Lift
•Talking
•Flash
•The Pass
•Palm
•Muscle Pass
Some of these have nothing to do with coin magic, but if you have NO IDEA on what these words are above, Modern Coin Magic should be BOOK #1 on your shelf. The Tarbel Course on Magic should be your book SET on the shelf. Buy one book a month.
Back to Bobo...
I can't stress how important The French Drop is. Once mastered with coins, you can begin using it with silks, balls, rocks, cigarettes, cigars, cards, etc.
Don't try it with a bowling ball though... save that one for this guy:
(parents: This is from a German TV show, so Jonathan's a little more tame. There's a lot of YouTube uploads with a LOT of BLUE dialog, so you may want to preview his acts)

My Favorite Tricks in a Bag
I was working as a magician one summer, and asked myself; "If I had to put together a small container of magic props, what would they be?
The idea came to me after playing with a cassette tape container.
I thought about what I could put in a cassette tape container and be able to do a mini magic show. Anytime, anyplace.
Here is what I came up with:
1. A Deck of Cards
2. 3 and-a-half of clubs
3. Thumbtip
4. Silk
5. Scotch and soda
6. A quarter
7. Beeswax
8. Flash paper
9. $1.00 bill
10. Business cards
11. 3 color monte
There you have it. Of course the deck of cards will not fit in the holder, but they could be rubber banded together (which then gives you rubber bands for another trick too!
I wanted to assemble and package this idea for others to buy, but you have to buy like, 3,000 thumbtips to get a good price!
Heck, use a 8mm video cassette holder and see what you can do.
I was going to call it something like "Magician in a Box" or "Instant Magician" or even "Magicians Emergency Kit" in case theirs got stolen (I actually saw that at Mickey Hades in Seattle) - something like that. It would also be a great kit to give to my students who come to my Magic Lessons.
