The combo pack in Penguin has run out, I think it is due to their new Penguin Five.
Oh, maybe it's OOT or perhaps it is not in particular order, but Peter's name is on the top of their featured pros list.

I'm agreeing up above, the noise it makes going through just adds to the illusion even more.

Hmmm... To me, no noise is more "realistic". Not that I really care one way or the other, though!
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".

Visuually it looks like the edges tightly hug all sides of the pen - and to me it looks like the sides adjust slightly to the size of the pen as it penetrates as an optical illusion of sorts. The gimmick is so well made (as we know) that there is literally no space or gap that can be seen at the sides. If there were a gap, then yes it would make complete sense I agree for near total silence. But the "tightness" is obvious while watching the effect - hence the slight squeeky sounds (the tone of which changes slightly as the pen is inserted in and out) perfectly matches what the eyes see. Maybe I am over analyzing... but STC "syncs" idealy from a sound & sight perspective - which is one of the things that makes it so special.

If I go in a angle it does make a slight noise. If I go stright down it don't make a sound. If you don't like the noise play with the angle that the pen goes in.

I got this the other day and I'm very happy with it. the gimmick is very well made.
I like the idea of the drawing the black hole on the card. however, I was wondering if anyone has ever used black plastic for a removeable hole? you know that plastic stuff that isn't sticky, but it clings to stuff? like the stuff that comes on a computer monitor or TV when you get one brand new so that it doesn't get scratched and covered in dust and stuff? or the plastic you put over your smart phone so you don't ruin your screen? if you got that stuff, but maybe spray painted it black, would that work? I would have this on the gimmick already. they sign their card. I show them the a "portable hole" ... I put it on the back of their card... then I put their card face up on the deck. and say "ok, your signature is on this side... turnover... and we put the hole on the other side"... then put the sharpie through the card. then turn the card over again, show the signiture and then take the plastic off... then you can go into an ambitious card routine or any other signed card effect and the back of the card is back to normal. you can probably easily ditch the gimmick as well while they are examining their card and the sharpie. because I love that idea of the "fake hole" that becomes real like in the cartoons. and I want to use this trick before going into an ACR... but obviously you can't do an ACR with a black circle on the back made with a sharpie. the other option is to just get a bunch of black circle stickers printed out. my girlfriend has a machine that looks like a printer except that it cuts out shapes on paper with a blade... so she could take a piece of black vinyl sticker paper and cut a bunch of circles the correct size. this would work except obviously I'd have to carry around sheets of stickers instead of just one piece of plastic that I can re-use. and I wouldn't want something so sticky that would make it hard to peal off afterwords. alternatively, I could use this a finale... put the sticker on, do the penetration... then they get to keep their card with the sticker on it... so then they'll have a souvenir and they'll tell people that I put a marker through the "hole" on the back of the card. |

Sorry if I'm being dumb and/or it's already been covered but there's talk a few pages back about combining this with SF. Is SF an effect and if so what does it stand for?
