Tricks, Props and Gags

The Ultimate Appearing Bowling Ball ©
A huge seller when Dave does his lecture tours. This is about as visual and pure as magic gets. He always wanted to produce a bowling ball from his suit jacket without any awkward moves or motions. After weeks of prototyping and development this version was born and this has been an item right out of his professional repertoire that served him well for many years

The Improved Shop Teacher
A very visual bit for the comedy performer! Dave has used this in comedy clubs, campuses and on TV for years. At any point in your act you put your hand, palm down on this odd looking wooden apparatus

The Tragedy Tray
AKA: The Comedy Drop Tray (seen here with wireless remote). There are several imitators on the market that are on timers but not under the performers complete control.....Well until now. This is an unbelievably useful utility item, to which end there is no limit. It is finally available for the first time. It is a wireless remote control tray that has a handle release system that will fall out of the spectators hands on command by remote control. When you get an unsuspecting volunteer to hold this tray during any magic piece in your act, whatever you have resting on the tray hits the floor at your command. The possibilities are endless!

Drill Through the Finger
Again, at any point in your act you can produce this item and talk about how much fun you have "wierding" people out, or scaring away door to door salesmen, etc. The “how you present it” is up to you! You pull out (from your table or case) a full size electric drill with a one foot drill bit in it.

The Seniors Map
It again is a very visual gag and better than that very magical looking at the same time. You can do jokes about how tough it is to fold maps, Dave does material about senior citizens, growing old etc. At that moment you bring out a totally folded map. It is brought forward and unfolded in front of the audience.

Body Flossing
This is the first time this has been available for purchase. The stunning updated version of this was recently invented at a recent Magic Convention during Q & A at one of Dave’s lectures….. it went directly to his workshop and then immediately into his show! At any point in your act you pull out a length of rope for display.

The Nail Gun
This is a fun little bit that Dave has used to introduce a card trick he does in his act. It involves a nail gun and your forehead. It is a very visual gag and really gets an amazing reaction. It is very off beat and will have people talking long after the show is over. You start the gag off by picking up this electric power assisted nail gun and  "shooting" a couple of nails into a piece of wood.

World's Best Cap in Bottle
The classic cap in bottle trick but finally a version that can be done from the stage and with complete confidence. The handling was worked out in conjunction with Jay Sankey and now stands up to real world use. The initial idea of the Cap in Bottle was incredible, however it had definite limitations.

Accupuncture
Another new item recently added to Dave’s Magic Store. This optically perfect illusion was stumbled upon by Dave in his workshop several months ago. It was shown to a group of magicians and was an instant hit. The performer takes a rubber
glove, the type that one would wear when working with chemicals or toxins and slips it on either hand.

Excuse Me, What TIme is it?
One of Dave's best gags, "What time is it". The performer can load this gimmick quick and easily at any point. He is then seen standing with his jacket over his outstretched arm and his hand and watch are visible.

The Varicose Vein
This little oddity has been in his act for years. Again it is one of the hundreds of gas he has in his act and can be done offhanded and at any time. In the middle of any trick, story or bit you quite simple can appear to pull a varicose (or any) vein right out of your leg. Yes you just reach down and pull that sucker out! Another great laugh in Dave's act!

The Wine and Cheese Party
This is an odd bit of business and an item Dave came up with for his TV series in Canada that needed 12 “Geek” pieces. The item became a staple in his club act and was seen by thousands of people in comedy clubs across North America. It involves a cheese knife and your forearm.

Arm Sanding
After complaining about scabs, tennis elbow, skin rashes or anything else you can come up with, you bring out a high speed sander and show it to the crowd, (this gets a laugh already.) Then you calmly proceed to roll up your sleeve (if not wearing short sleeves) and sand the problem off!

Jackass Caps
Don't you hate when that Cadillac Escalade takes up two parking spots in a busy parking lot or someone blocks your exit as he runs into the bank for 5 minutes.
