2% Tacks (Two Percent Tacks) by Owen Magic Supreme

I am glad to say that here is a very nice item from Owen’s Magic that will not empty your wallet. The workmanship is impeccable. This particular piece was made with exotic Bubinga, but I was shown others using different types of woods and even combinations. It’s an “innocent” looking box holding a few office trinkets.

Effect: The magician demonstrates the near indestructibility of the US $20 bill. He tacks the bill to a wooden disk with two push pins. The disk hangs from the bill. The magician grasps the disk in one hand and the bill in the other hand and PULLS … there is the expected ripping sound. But wait! Though there are two holes in the bill where the push pins went in, there are no tears! The push pins are still firmly embedded in the disk, and everything may be handled be the spectators.
