Die Tunnel (Large) by Mel Babcock

This effect dates back at least as early as 1968 in the USA by Tannen’s.

The method is similar to Alan Warner’s effect Dice-A-Matic, but in this version you cannot show the bottom of the tube. Mel also created a mini version, a Giant (4″ die) version and a Small (2 1/4″ die) version.

Effect: This is a very deceptive effect that is always ready. A wood tube is displayed, squared up, and shown to be empty. You also show a large 3″ die which can be examined. The die is now slowly pushed into the tube and when it emerges from the other side, the number that was on top has changed. There are holes drilled into the ends of the tube so you can see the number change clearly. It works cleanly with nothing added or taken away every time.
