I recently called Frank Radtke direct to get him to do an order for me consisting of ball products and a ball holder. The package arrived today and the ball holder was way beyond my belief. The balls have a perfect fit and the pin motion is soo smooth, there is nothing out there like it.

The pictures on Stevensmagic.com site do not show the real work put behind it and the smoothness of it. These are hand made Swiss motion beauties!

The problem with wire holders is if they are located under the coat (for the most part) the hand has to reach up under the coat, bend unnaturally at the wrist and pull the ball out. With this ball holder, the whole gimmick can be concealed under the seam line inside the coat, and with a simple push of any finger or palm and than easing on the pin, a ball comes out to the bottom of the coat, right into your hand, no unnatural twisting of the wrist. You'll look like a professional using it after 1 hour.

I have read similar posts about how the balls get stuck in the holder and this, and that. I don't know why those were posted because these things are the closest things to perfect!

If there is any questions or comments please post!

I have one of Frank's ball droppers and I must agree with your evaluation. It is a thing of beauty, and much more durable than it initially appears.

STOP TEMPTING ME TO BUY ONE!

Haha, well what is holding you back my friend?

Money is tight right now. Perhaps after the summer is over.

I am a gimmick and manipulation gimmick junkie. lol. Any ways. I have an old ball dropper made a long time ago by Gimmicked inc. I am not sure they are around any longer. It was really nicely designed, easy to use and worked along the same premise as above.
