Quote: why the back pocket?? The idea is to look like you just place the cards in plan sight snd you really switched them.

Exactly… that’s why I’m really intrigued.

I just don’t wear a jacket!
So I could place it in my backpocket halfway in view! Turn around do whatever Trick turn around again so the cards are still there and then do the switch! Sorry for my English 🙈 |

I don’t think this makes much sense when putting it in the backpocket. Seems very strange to put it in a pocket and then turning around so that it’s in view.

I agree about the back pocket, makes no sense.
I have an electronic version as well that I bought at Blackpool along with a smoke device. It switches cards beautifully but unfortunately it’s a bit too noisy for me. I didn’t notice the noise as much at a packed Blackpool but I got it as a deal with the smoke device. It’s slim and discreet and it even shows how to wear it on your wrist and switch poker hands etc in card games. So the technology is certainly there Gaz 😊 |

I asked Mark Mason about the thickness. His response:
'Yes thinner and now a wedge shape tapers down to almost nothing at the bottom. No bar now it's a very thin blade. All this helped reduce the thickness. Several other design features as well. But definitely thinner' May be helpful to some... ;-) |

I love the original, minus the bulky design and the method of attaching it to the jacket. The operation of the device itself was flawless and diabolical. But you risked exposure while seated if there were others standing. Curious about this and echo the need for exact dimensions.
...forever curious

Mark is on holiday so couldn't give exact dimensions just yet.

I agree with Rowland the original is pretty much silent and still works great Gaz 😊
Ps there are loads of good ways to set it up in your breast pocket if you don’t want to use a safety pin |

This new version, it literally looks like nothing is pressed down as in inserted but simply the hand seems to just cover. I was thinking remote control activating the change but don’t think it’s that techy. The switch may be the sane method as the old and if that’s the case the demo performers are executed perfectly

Thank you for that clarification. Even better! Re how the switch happens, Mark talks about replacing the 'bar' with a thin 'blade'. Can anyone shed light on what he might mean? |

If it’s somewhat like the 1st one than no electronics.
