Dear all
Looking for materials on this topic, please help

Well, I think my first response would be to ask what have you found so far in your own research on rope routines with multiple cut & restored phases ? (or is this the start of your research ?)

There's so much literature out there on rope magic , it's hard to know where to start with recommendations for a multiple cut & restored rope routine , not knowing what your current knowledge is.

There is also the Search function on the Magic Cafe. Search by Keywords and you can specify that the search is limited to the Knots and Loops topic. https://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/search.php

(also , searching with Google Advanced Search is helpful. https://www.google.com/advanced_search . Specify the domain to search is themagiccafe.com )

I have an old routine called Necklacy that has four C&R effects mixed in with other effects with object originally on the necklace.
I might publish it if there is enough interest. I sent out some draft copies in 2007, but most felt it was too long for walk-around,
and not flashy enough for stage. It works because the different C&R are spaced out and seem necessary to support the other effects.
Also, a different method is used each time. The exciting part is the different ways of showing the ends to be separate after the cut.
My friendship with MagicIan began with that exploration.

So, what is the end result you are trying for? Several in a row can reduce to skill demonstration with no magic impact.
There has to be a reason for both the cutting and the later restore. It is usually difficult to do this once. Why more?
How do you enhance the conclusion of "must be magic" while avoiding the risk of suspicion/exposure from repeat actions?

I guess my point is that there is a good reason why there is little material on this subject.

Now, if you mean multiple cuts of singe rope that are restored, you can find some, even in Tarbell.
