Locked Die by El Duco’s Magic

A locked die escapes from a bolt and penetrates your hand! A long unavailable effect from 1981 by El Duco made with high quality props. El Duco created some really nice dice effects over the years with large good quality dice and this one is no exception. Comes with four sides of photo-illustrated instructions and two routines. After conversations with one of the friends of MartinsMagic.com it is believed that these dice were made for El Duco by the brass chip master himself: Per Clausen.

Effect: Let a spectator examine a bolt with screw nut and a big die (25mm) with a hole right thru. Put the die on to the bolt and lock it with the nut. Place the bolt with the locked die into your open left palm. Close the hands and make a gesture to your right hand. When you open the hands, THE DIE IS IN YOUR RIGHT HAND AND THE BOLT IN YOUR LEFT! The die seems to has jumped from the bolt into your right hand. Hand over die and bolt for examination.

Or place the bolt with the locked die in the center of an outspread hank. Fold the hank over the bolt and lift it up, shake it over the spectator’s hand. Out falls the die, which seems to has penetrated both bolt and hank! Open the hank and out comes the empty bolt and you are clean!

Bolt and die can be examined before and after.
