Sorry for answering in this thread, but did anybody get the new Alpha ITR Reel from Sorcery?
Is there really any difference with the usual ITR's? Here is the link to this item: http://itrmagictricks.com/p8076/Alpha_Re......nfo.html |

The TM2 can be hard to find and usually has to be back ordered directly from Mark. It's beyond worth the wait. This is the best reel in my book. Cheaper than sorcery, better thread, perfect tension every time, easy to retrieve the thread after breakage (I HATE those little beads!), and a HUGE retraction distance. I can't believe these aren't the industry standard. Gizmos are neat, but the novelty can wear off. Mark Allen's TM2 is a WORKER!

I'm watching the DVD right now, it shows how to attach the ring & do the routine. My question is, what DVD are you watching? I have had 0 problems with mine & I just got done setting the Tarantula for hovering(I have been doing it with the regular Fearson hook up). The fact that I was able to take it apart & get it back together as explained should be a testament to how well made this thing is. Usually when I take something apart, that's the end of it for me. I'm really enjoying this little thing Mike |

If you are a novice to thread work don't buy this. Get leclair's book and msl.
If you have the tarantula. MSl from Fearson is a must have. If you have not purchased a tarantula, get Msl first. If you don't like the setting up and wish for a faster Fearson hook up. Then get a tarantula. Yigal's dvd that comes with the tarantula is very good, but if more detail was explained about the customization and the fine points of holding the tarantula correctly where explained a bit better most of the complaints we are seeing could be avoided. There is play in the switch(This play is there to prevent the switch from breaking), if not held correctly you will hear a click when pressed, this click is almost indistinguishable from the click you may here when it is in the correct position. This is not a motor failure or problem with parts. You need to make sure the tarantula is in the correct position. If you are having a problem pm. I have had no problems with mine when held correctly. In my opinion this is a well made device and very clever. Replacing the spool is very easy. I have had mine for a few weeks now and I am still on my first spool. I practice with this everyday. for experience I.T workers, I.T breaking should not be an issue. |
