Two great items for Street are a inkwriter for stunning mental effects, and a mismade bill for the legendary bill switch.

I am a huge fan of the hundy 500, it is one of those effects you can carry on you everywhere you go and when someone asks to see an effect you have it.

Can't we agree, that *gimmicks* are secret/invisible devices and not a routine like Hundy 500 or a rubber chicken, or even a force deck?
The *Raven* is a gimmick and so is a *TT*, as well as a *Topit*. Quote:

So to term a *gimmick* correctly, I really think it always is an unseen tool, even if it is visible like a TT, it still is 'unseen'. A Dyetube is a gimmick..that kind.. Ppl telling here, there favourite gimmick is this or that routine didn't understand the original question!

Handz Up is my favorite gimmick. Levitations, bizarre illusions with everyday objects, comedy routines are all done with this simple, yet effective quality gimmick.
