Ben,

Have you had the chance to perform this for a real audience. It would be great to see some of the reactions.

Thanks for your input Calvin but I have assumed that that was Mrs H or an associate. My question relates to a proper performance so I'll leave it out there. Unless you are Bens spokesperson on this, in which case apologies.

Hi guys.

Yes, of course this can be performed for real people in real circumstances. Footage to come in due course. I spent ten years doing close-up in restaurants, and this is a carry everywhere dream that you can use in the real world. That's why this thing has taken twenty years. It had to be practical. Bottom line.

So, please be patient.

There will be more footage, and there will be lots more details forthcoming.

But, until everything is pinned down (TV rights, release formats, manufacturing rights, etc) I can't give out any further info or media clips. I've even been asked to pull down the existing clip! I'm refraining at present!

I have commitments that must be respected. So, please be cool.

The release date is set and I'm never late (ask any of my clients). Closer to the time of release you will have everything you need to make an informed decision. All will be layed out in front of you.

Thanks for your continued support, all of you.

Cheers

Ben, as far as constructing this yourself..how easy or difficult is that? I'm asking because I purchased "Flight Case", and that was a bear to assemble..so picky in all the little minute adjustments. Plus I looked EVERYWHERE for clear plastic you know whats, and every place I looked I could find nothing but colored ones. I was never happy with the end results.

Please tell me this is much easier to construct.

Hi Daffy dude!

This is a lot easier to constuct. But, you won't be perfect first time. You'll get it working, but you'll be so fascinated that you'll sell everything just to buy time to tweak, improve, adjust, play.

Seriously, the more attention you give the details, the better this is. BUT you can throw it together, roughly, quickly and easily if you wish.

Think of it like a light switch. Anyone can turn it on and off, but dimming it requires greater effort.

Cheers

Funny, guys!

Latest --

We are working on having this factory made. Precision work in plastic and brass.
If this all works out, then there will be no book, no self-construction, just a beautifully made gimmick and instructions. The price would come down too. Possibly, $69.95 - complete.

This is not definite, there are still lots of details to sort, but it will still be a May release.

Cheers

That wouldn't be too bad. Fair price. Save us the headaches of trying to get it right....I like it.
