Hi,
I got a good D&P set, and made a mistake by shoving normal Dime into instead of gimmicked. So my Penny s***l got kinda loose, Is there any way to make it a bit tighter again or I ruined the trick? thanks |

Well, you could take the original dime part of the trick and insert it and give it a good/forceful roll back and forth on a very hard surface. That might tighten it up again...Or, to be honest, Dime & Penny isn't really all that expensive...It might be a good idea to simply get yourself another one, and be a little more careful the next time. Good luck.

If you roll it on a hard surface, make sure you don't make it so tight the dime doesn't come out.

Hmmm, the d/p's that I have all accept a regular dime - that is part of the trick.
Anyway, besides rolling the s****, as already mentioned, I have salvaged a scotch & soda by putting a coating of a liquid bandage on its inside. It worked great ever since. Nail polish might work as well. John

I believe that Bobo has a little bit of maintence in his book...or else the Johnson instructions do.
You can slightly bend the [ inward.

I would just leave it lose. Though all my dime penny sets still lock and fit over a dime just fine. But if you leave it loose you can do david acers "Spare Change"

John, Your D/P is the Ma******C one and you are correct in that it is a SH*** that can be stolen by a MA****T. However w/o recealing to much the D/P the other gent has is a cheaper version of scotch and soda....
