It can be made from certain red rubber balls quite well. I just apply fingernail polish remover to the ball and the glaze comes off and it's flesh-colored underneath.
There's more on Squash in Apocalypse, from a copy from the early '80s. |

Brussell Sprouts don't work as well as Squash.

I found that The Trickery has this effect for sale. Here:
http://www.thetrickery.com/?nd=full&key=7350 They call it the vanishing glass and say in the ad copy it is just like squash. I bought mine for $2.00 in 1964. It is now only $5. Looks like the economy did not hit this trick yet. Yes, Abbott's is the place to get it if Greg Bordner can still get the gimmicks. I have not been up there in a while. |

I modified my original ball with a tab so you can thumb palm it.

My original ball degraded into dust!

Sounds like what's happening to my brain.

Pete, hopefully you didn't stick your head in a shotglass one too many times.

Man, that brings back memories....
I was a young master at Squash...almost chipped a hip bone several times with that little sucker, but boy, was I good. As a teen Usher at church, I would skip out to the local gas station and do magic, then get back in time for Collection, bail again and do more magic. The preacher was boring, magic was not. Pretty much the sasme today, mostly. I found that the various materials made a huge difference in the execution of the trick...some worked much easier than others. IF you make your own and are having troubles, change your materials and see if things improve.
We dance an invisible dance to music they cannot hear.
