Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Two sides illusion

    Hello, I am new to the forum so I'm not sure if this is legal to ask. I was wondering if anyone could give me information on how one could appear to present both sides of something such as ruler, while only presenting one. I would prefer to avoid spinning the ruler as well. I am wondering if it would be possible to do with a motion that resembles opening a door knob with only a single hand. If this is poorly worded/illegal please just let me know and I will remove. Thank you for your time. I would just like to know where I can find more information (if this has already been done before) or how I might go about figuring something out myself. I am very new to illusions but they are extremely interesting.

    This is a pretty basic move known as the paddle move. You can get a set of paddles from most magic shops, and I believe Mark Wilsons magic book goes into detail on the move.
