How To Make Magicians Wax And Invisible Thread Reel

Hey Guys

This is a tutorial on how to make magicians wax which is used to stick things especially an invisible thread to a card or coin.It is very useful and and undetectable.
We will aslo learn how to make invisible thread too.

1.Magicians Wax
I hope everyone knows what exactly is magicians wax.There are tons of substitutes for them.I am going to show you the best of them.You cant really make magicians wax.Bees Wax is a reliable substitute.Candle wax alone is not good and didnt work for me.

We are going to make it without any wax at all.

Ingrediants :
1.Glue Stick, like on of those Fevistick or Korex or of Elmers Stick.

Method :

Glue stick is the kind of glue which is much more solid and comes in lipstick like tube.The bottom can be turened and the glue pops out.
Once you have got your hands on one, remove the protective cap and keep it away.Now rotate the glue sticks bottom so that some of the glue part surfaces.Now keep the stick in open for a night or so.
Basically the glue is a bit moist ,or slippery.Keeping it open makes it more dry and harder.
Keep it exposed to air and the glue becomes harder and harder.Soon you will be able to take round blobs out of it and they would be sticky.
Choose how hard they should be by exposing it to the air for more time.But be careful, if you put it too long it will completely dry up.Thats useless because it will loose its sticky property.
Once the glue stick is hard and blobs of it can be taken cover it back with the cap after taking sufficient amount of gluestick "magicians wax" ..

Something else that you can try is mixing some powdered candle wax to the glue before drying it.For this you need to completely empty the glue from the stick and put it in a bowl ,it will be really sticks.Use spoons or forks or something like that.
Now you must have pieces of candle wax dipped in cold water for an hour.After keeping it that long take the pieces and cut them further.Now grind them to powder.By powder i mean really POWDERED.

Note: The keeping of candle wax in cold water and grinding them etc should be done before emptying the glue to bowl,otherwise as you do all these things the glue will dry up by that time.

Now take the powdered wax and mix the glue and the powder well untill they form a compact mixture.They must form a single mass.Now flatten the mass a bit and leave it to dry.Check from time to time the blobiness and take a piece out of it whenever you feel its ready.

Try out different stuffs instead of wax and let me know the perfect combination.

This is more familiar to everyone.Yes its very easy.Find any women stockings..ur own socks, reel of nylon thread available from the market, a black kind of thread used in necklace ormentation and in India its used to make a wrist band sort of thing...its religious though.
All these stuffs can be used.Get hold of a single thread from any of these and look closely and you will notice that its made of many tiny threads.Seperate each strand and there you have it Invisble Thread.
Some are realy strong and others and realy invisible.
Try out a variety of fabrics dude,you will get it.

For Sundeep : I hope your mother has a " SILK SAREE " .Get a old one and strip the stands and you might get it.

For others its not that difficult,either stockings,socks or nylon reel.

REMEMBER : "THE WILL TO TRY WILL MAKE YOU SUCCEED "



If You Didnt Like Any Of The Ideas Go Buy A Genuine One.
Thats Simplest Way But Makes Your Wallet Feel Lighter Than Air.



Thankyou.

Cool, admin. You rock. And the special notice for me is very rocking.
Thank you,for this. I have a question to ask you, but I dont have
answer for it. Here is the question, If the glue is dried up more than
enough, is there any method to make it again sticky and as new as it
was, when it was new.???? I think maybe soacked in water. Will it
work. If oyu dint get me. just tell me dont struggle to understand this
message. If you want me to tell this again, just ask me.

Thanks for the tutorial. Where did you find it?

He dint find it. He himself made it. Think so.

Wow, I didn't realize you had such potential Admin! How long did it take you to type it up?

a bit while...void a bit...

and sundeep to make the glue back to normal just replace the cap back dude...dont soak in water and destroy it...

i think it would be easier than trial and error just to buy some penguin wax for $2.50 i have had mine for over a year and i still have plenty

You're the same way as I am Joker, I buy all my stuff. I don't have the time to make it myself.

well its fun making...think so..

cool thanks Admin!!!

welcome dude...

I like making. This methos rocks. Any more ideas will be apprecitated.

I guess that I'm not more of the DIY kind of person.

What is the meaning of DIY?

DIY stands for Do It Yourself.

Oh! Cool. Thank you. I dont know many words.

I'll PM you on something sundeep.

What will you pm?

hope that was really useful guys..

I know it was very useful to many members here Admin. Any other tutorials?

Just something quick.
Do not get confused, invisible thread is different to an invisible thread REEL and an invisible thread reel, isn't a reel that just has thread coming out of it to make it easier to get invisible thread (just in case if that was what you were thinking), it is a magic gimmick.
It is like a reel of thread that you can quickly attach somewhere, and then walk back and levitate stuff, it is hard to explain.
Just wanted to make sure no one got confused.
I think it is called a, "Thread Genie" at Penguin Magic.

Thanks for the clearification Tim!

Cool, tim. Another big message from Tim.

Back to topic : ITReel is the thing used by criss angel for the tricks he performed called floating card. It look really cool.

Yes, sundeep that's what he used.

But, what I dont get is, how will it look. How to construct it? Does anyone know? Can we make it on own, DIY???
