If you can find Wayne Raeke's Anytime, Anywhere, Linking Rope Routine, it has the real work in it.
It has the advantage of being easy to do, easy to read, and well-illustrated. It has the disadvantage of being out of print. But there are a few copies still out there.

Greetings Bill;
Wayne Raeke's Anytime Anywhere linking Ropes is still in print. In fact we have been producing this for probably about 18 years now. We had a commission arrangement with Wayne for about 4 years then bought it outright from him at the T.A.O.M. convention when it was down in Tyler Texas. Both General Grant and myself lectured and performed at that convention and wayne was at our stand quite a bit demonstrating the ropes for us. Wayne had some very clever ideas and magic, worked with a lot of magic youth groups, he is missed. Wayne originally came from Baltimore, same city I am from, and he was very active in magic at the old Yogi magic club and shop there when I was growing up. It is sad that we lose so many talents so young. Anyway did not mean to ramble on, just wanted to let you know that it is still in print & comes with a set of regular ropes as well ready to practice and work. All the Best Marty |

I have the Stevens ungimmicked linking ropes, and I agree with "leondo" that the instructions are difficult to work through. I guess I am stubborn, but I did work my way through them, and I now have an effect that I carry with me all the time. It is one of my favorite effects, and it is an audience fooler. It looks like real magic! I love magic that is gimmick free, has examinable props, is based on slight-of-hand & misdirection, and is easy to do. This effect has all of these features. It is worth the initial frustration of understanding the concept. This effect is now in my kid's shows, adult shows, walk around, close up, stage, and street magic kits.
By the way, the Stevens Emporium customer service is about as good as it gets. |

The routine is very well thought out and the final link is really good. ArtS

I'm glad you like Wayne's routine. That was one of the first books I edited. Wayne had worked out a great routine. You should have seen his notes. He had drawings and photographs from everything from encyclopedias to nautical books! He did very thorough research.

Aldo Colombini has 2 very good linking rope effects on Lasting Impressions Vol. 4. They use ungimmicked rope rings or loops.

There's no DVD explanation that I know of. I learned it from Devin Knight's $8 downloadable PDF at Lybrary.com. Worth it! https://www.lybrary.com/ungimmicked-link......id=19742
