This has to be one of the best investments in mentalism. Not only does Switchcraft keep growing into an amazing resource but every so often Elliot treats us to new delights. And with each update it is a great reminder how good the contents really are and with the latest excellent effect helping to inspire further billet effects.
Absolutely brilliant.

Is Mystery Performers down, or is it just my computer having the trouble?

A new supplement will probably be distributed to my list prior to Halloween.

At least that’s the goal…

Just wanted to comment briefly on SwitchCraft. Not only is it well documented and depicted in countless pictures; but its not just about switching. I guess I would have to call it the most comprehensive work on billets that I've seen to date. Plus, Elliot includes extras. Oh yes, did I mention the hundreds and hundreds of pages of extras, not just variations and presentations, but methods to other similar effects.

So for $19.95, you get an ebook made up of ideas of close to a dozen superb performers and thinkers of our day on billet work in general, an uncounted amount of images showing you EXACTLY how to fold, tear and switch from multiple angles. And this isn't just a 30-50 page ebook either. Its a 500 page book, almost half the size of the Bible, chock full of goodness. Just thinking of the incredible amount of time and work it must have taken to make and compile boggles the mind.

I normally don't like it when I see people say "this should be sold for so much more", but I don't have much of a choice with SwitchCraft. Its such an incredible value, and contains everything one could ever wish to do with billets, for less than $20.

I highly recommend it to any of you who haven't heard of it/haven't purchased it. Its so inexpensive its almost like a gift. Save yourself hundreds of dollars on billet related work and get yourself a copy of SwitchCraft.

Thank you very much, gmeister, chrismatt, Neil, PWRIS, tmoca and Scott.

It has been progressing nicely, and I hope to meet my self imposed Halloween deadline.

Elliott,

I cannot wait to see what else is in store. My advice, and I know you are not asking, is to start Vol. 2.

I know Chubby Checker made a living out of one song, but you do not get royalties when you send out updated books, unless you pick up new sales.

Anyway, thanks for your generosity. I will be eagerly anticipating the new arrival.

Thank you, Bobby.

I like keeping things in one mega sized book; although, with each supplement, there is the hope that the newly created goodwill and buzz will generate some new sales.

As far the deadline is concerned; something important just came up that will require a lot of my free time for the next few weeks.

I don’t give up easily, though, and am still going to try for Halloween.

It does not appear that 18th supplement will make a Halloween release. That other thing is just eating up all my free time. Hopefully, I will have it ready soon enough, though. Sorry about the delay.

One of the things I am thankful for: Switchcraft (and Elliot Bresler's generosity).
