Just my two cents worth: I really enjoyed Clarke "The Senator" Crandall's "lectures" (really him sitting on a stool talking) at Abbott's in the early 70ties. I was extremely happy in watching (and learning) Clarke's dice stacking/magic routine from the Todd Strong DVD on dice stacking (www.ToddStrong.com). One of the difficult parts of the routine is producing at the end the two large jumbo dice quietly enough- it is not easy placing the jumbo die load first in the cup itself and then on a hard surface later without making some noise revealing the jumbo die being hidden under the cup. Problem solved- go to Party City (stores all over the U.S.) or their web site http://www.PartyCity.com and purchase jumbo red "Flashing Dice" #182551 for $5.99 a pair- these little beauties are large but fit nicely in a dice cup- and will flash if you hit them hard- but also are made out of a sticky silicone type substance that makes them not only easy to palm- but make very little noise when either placed in the dice cup and/or put back down onto the table surface. Not quite as classy as nice plastic jumbo dice- but hey- these are much more "quiet" in loading- yet also can light up flashing at the end if so desired.
