Thank you everyone for the knowledge and time spent. I am finnally joining the Cafe after getting back into magic. My father was a member of the magic castle and got me interested.

Ed Massey, Floyd G. Thayer, Carl Owens, and Carl Brema are some of the people I'm currently researching.

I am currently machining an illusion

Reading through the forums has tought me a great deal and I would love to join the discussion. Thank you all for reading this.
