EffectThe magician shows a cup and a ball. A game is played where the magician places the ball in the cup, shakes it around, places the ball in his pocket and the cup upside down on the table and asks the spectator, “ where is the ball? Is it in my pocket or under the cup?” The spectator will respond, “It is in the pocket ”. And of course, since the game is being played with a magician the ball is not in the pocket but under the cup. This game continues back and forth with the ball never being where the spectator expects it to be. Now the magician stops and lets the spectator put the ball in the cup and trying to do the same thing by putting the ball in his pocket, but the ball will not jump back under the cup. But when the Magician takes the cup the game is on again, until finally, 2 large balls or fruits are produced from under the cup. This effect is a lot of fun for both the magician and the spectators and we are sure it will be one of your favorite tricks. What is the Star Master Chop Cup System?A special gimmick is built in to the cup, used together with our new T BALLS, which is a ball that has no magnet! Both balls included in the set are the same so there is no need for switching of the balls. You can stop in the middle of the routine to let the spectator handle the cup, and of course then it will not work as a chop cup, but as soon as you get the cup back you can continue your Chop Cup routine. It is a Chop Cup When YOU want it to be!Due to the design of the cup in combination with the T BALL there is no longer any for banging of the cup on the table, all you need to do is move the cup. Comes with 2 of the new T BALLS. carrying bag and instructions which will show my way of loading the cup in the middle of the table. This Beautiful cup is hand spun in solid copper by Tim Star. The cup is polished to a high gloss finish and then clear coated. The cup is 95mm (3 3/4”) high and has a 76mm (3") wide mouth opening. The New T BallThe T BALL is our newest ball for the Chop Cup. On the outside it looks just like any of the other crocheted ball. But the inside is very different. It does not have a magnet so there is no need for switching of balls in the routines. The T BALL is the finest hand crocheted balls on the market. The balls are tightly stitched using a very small crochet needle and cotton thread so it takes a long time to make a ball. Because the stitch is so small and the thread is not “fuzzy”, T BALLS are much easier to palm and keep in control.
