If so, do they have a website, how much is it, etc.? I cannot find them on the web. www.theambitiouscard.com Hand Crafted Magic Trophy Husband, Father of the Year Candidate, Chippendale's Dancer applicant, Unofficial World Record Holder.

The average web site carries 10-25 johnson products, and I think there are between 75 and 100 or more available. E-mail Howard at the magicwarehouse. He will get it for you cheapest if it's available from Johnson. ...think not that all wisdom is in your school.

A matching brass wand is also in the works. There are two Johnson Products chop cups listed for auction on Ebay with an opening bid amount of $74.95.

The Chop cup is $80 and the wand $40 as I recall, but I could be off by a bit. The wand looks really cool--brass with ridges to match the cups, comes apart at the center for packing, and the wand is actually "chopped" as well! I'll be getting both of these!

I mean I know there is an effect with a coin shell that can be used in cojunction with this, but I don't see how to use this with the chop cup. Please bring in the light. Thanks, Carlos
