Sounds like an intersting addition for sure - has it been released yet?

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Unfortunately E2 would not change the fact that your specators still can't view the illusion from behind you. Because it is still using the same mechanical part of the gimmick. But it will greatly increase your angles to the side and the front of you. People who own one should know what I mean.

JackDaniel, unfortunately E2 is also not going to change the bulkyness of the trick, infact it my make it slightly bigger. But since it will be invisible durring the levitation I don't think this is a bad thing because it will also give you better balance control.

No it has not been released. We are still awaiting for the final peice of the puzzle to arrive from Chance Wolf who offered to send this to us.

Once it is complete I will test it out for while and then make a final decision whether to release this or not. I have to find out exactly how much we could sell them for. If it is too expensive to produce, then I may just scrap the idea and make only one for myself and few friends.

Ill be sure to keep you all posted on my final decision of the product.

P.

Man, I hope it won't be too much to mass produce. I really want one of these!

Ian

Same with me...I would be willing to pay as much as you would have to sell it for.

james

How much is the E-2?

Nevermind the money...count me in! Please.

Any Updates? Why not put this in the Tricks and Effects forum? It seems to get the most views...

Ian

Chance informed me today that the final part we need to finish the prototype was sent yesterday. So hopefully in a few days we will recieve this and be able to finish it promptly for real world testing.

Another idea would to be to sell all the parts already made and manufactured, and you get an instructional booklet to help you put it together, which would also bring the price down substantially, since we could elliminate some of the labour costs for assembly. But we have to assess whether or not this is going to be feasible for people to put together themselves as some tools would be required.

P.

I would suggest telling what they would need (if this can be done without revealing anything) and if they can make it they can make it, if not then they wont buy it. I hope the testing goes well. Good luck.

James

As an ex science / technical technician I'll happily test your instructions for idiot proofing. I think you guessed that you're on to another winner here Peter.

AJOJRF Ill keep your thoughts in mind.

Kinesis were not asking for any volunteers at this time but we may actually get some beta testers for this if they would be willing to accept the shipping charges etc. So Ill keep you in mind.

P.

I'll test it also if need be. I would pay shipping + handling in order to help you perfect it before it's released...

Ian

Is the part in yet by any chance???? (Can you tell I'm really excited about this? Lol.)

Ian

I would be very interested in this. Was just looking at the elevator and came to the Café to research it when I found this thread.

This seems interesting.

No the part is not in yet. Probably won't arrive until this week sometime, and then we still have some R&D work ahead of us.

This is an interesting idea. Actually based on a classic princible used in magic. The idea is rather clever, but simple, its making it that is the challenging part.

P.

Hmmm I think I have an Idea of what it is. Anyway I would purchase this, I think it would be great because that's one of the first thing specs want to do. Also, would this be the first lev to be able to have the spec look under your feet?

Correct me if Im wrong, but yeah I think it would be.

James

I would love it!

Thanks to Chance Wolf we have our final remaining peice to the puzzle to begin the final prototype. We hope to have this fully operational for live testing by the end of the month.

P.

Good of you to keep us posted Peter. It keeps the thread warm too. Look forward to reading the results of your prototype testing. Best of luck.
