Looks promising. Noticed it has a scent effect built in as well as many other ideas.

Description seems a bit vague to me. Is there any further info or demos on this tool?

I also pre-ordered weeks ago before a trailer was released. Ive always been so impressed with Nicholas’s releases so it was a no brainer. I am even more excited after watching the trailer, especially seeing just some of the effects shown in the demo. I cant wait to see the rest!

I messaged Nicholas asking to clarify a few things. I confirmed that there is no reset and it really can be handled by the spectator. He told me the tutorial is an about an hour long and its jammed packed with ideas.

I love Gregory Wilson’s Pointless and its so awesome that I can now finally do it with a sharpie. I really like the visual phases Nicholas shows in the trailer too.

Cant wait to get this in my hands as it’s currently in transit. Gonna write a review once I receive.

Received mine today. Such a cool, devious, and well made gimmick. Can't wait to start performing it! I can certainly state there is a lot of use in this utility!

I can see why you are so pumped Nicholas. I received this today and I am speechless. Your mind is truly fantastic. I'm glad I bought the Pro pack but honestly I may need another pro pack, this is just that good, to good and I haven't even been through all the effects but what I've been through so far just makes me feel like you do, pumped.

My hat's off to you on this release. The craftsmanship to make these by hand is truly impeccable. You my friend are the complete definition of a creator of magic.

Ready to pull the trigger on this! From what I understand the Pro package just has 2 sharpies as opposed to one. Is there a reason for this or just so you have a spare?

I think I recall seeing Nicholas addressing this somewhere -- given that the full package is $50, for another $20 you get a backup gimmick which seems like a good deal if you have use for one. Many pros routinely buy backups for things they perform all the time.

Well, I'm glad I got the Pro-pack because I did drop my gimmick and it broke. It wasn't a light drop, I was doing the "bigger motion covering the smaller motion" and well the sharpie and gimmick went flying! I have dropped it a few times with no problems but this time, well, it traveled far and came down hard, lol.

So I just ordered another pro-pack since this is not a manufactured item and is hand made which, I believe, once these are gone they may not be available for some time. For me, this is something I will be using a lot.

As far as the price, well the gimmick is beautiful and will not be questioned (at least it has not been questioned thus far after now performing it more than a few times). That being said, it's hand made! So I can easily see the justification for the asking price especially for how many different things you can do with the gimmick.

How are you travelling with this gimmick, how do you carry it on your person to keep it safe.

One of the members in the SharpShifter User group on Facebook suggested a pill container keychain, they’re sleek and won’t rattle around to much. I’ll probably pick one up myself!


While I’m here, I’d like to say Thank You Everyone for the great feedback and of course all of your orders! Truly appreciated! There’s only a few (Pro 2 x Gimmick) left in this first batch. Which isn’t a permanent option, offering the Pro was just a small way to give back to my early supporters. Though, I am considering offering a discounted Gimmick Only option for those who already purchased from my website. There is still a handful of the standard available but they won’t last long!

As always, my products are exclusive to my website for the first 3-6 months, So if you want one you know where to get it! I’ll do my best to check back to answer any more questions or concerns!

All the best!

This is another effect I performed at my event this past weekend and I have to say people really enjoyed it. I performed the capped and uncapped routine. In addition to the routine supplied by Nicholas, he offers many bonus ideas that he believes can be used and developed into other routines. So many good ideas Nicholas shares.

Love the look of the recapping routine.
Perhaps I am missing something but for a lot of the other routines couldn't they just be performed with a dried out pen?
