A BLAST from the past! It's an old trick but it a good one! Pencil through Bill or Misled was made famous in the magic community by David Copperfield.
This has to be one of the best bill penetration effects. Perfect for close up and walk about and so forth.
I was originally just going to put this on my website andyfield.info/ but I was very pleased with the result. So I decided to upload it you KZbin.
When I received the trick part of my study was to watch other people perform it and spot any mistakes that I could benefit from.
I noticed two problems. The first was that people took too long to perform it. This told me that they had not yet practiced enough before uploading their video. This affected their pacing. Pacing is the speed that a magician perform a trick. Think of it like a CD. You can speed it up or slow it down. Either way you get a different result.
The second problem I noticed was that they had problems using the gimmick. It is actually made from metal. To get round this I noticed that magicians were doing all sorts of crazy things in their presentations!
The solution was very simple. All they had to do was gently adjust the gimmick. So simple.
If you do not have Misled by Timoth Wenk then get it. It does require a lot of practice to make it look smooth. I know you will find it worth the effort.
