Can anyone recommend a book that details building plans for the "head-twister" Illusion?

One idea for a simple head twister comes from the Andrew Mayne book Illusiontech.

It's not a book, but Osborne sells a plan for "Twisted."

I've not seen plans for just the head box, but since it's an integral part of this prop, I assume that the information you need is included.

I've got the Andrew Mayne book Facelifter. It's alright. It's one of those things where I bought it thinking it was going to be better than what I had already come up with but thought wouldn't work. You know when you get that feeling..."Well, I could do THIS, but come on...who would fall for that?"

Well, apparently Andrew Mayne thought so. There's a head twisting section in there.

CW.
Dave Johnson Builds A Great Head Twister. Not sure he has plans available. Knowing Dave he keeps it all in his head. I have a picture on my website along with his contact info. He would be able to tell you about materials and so forth.
Good Luck!
