I am feeling so dumb right now. Been going thru some of our boxes from our move and found a trick that I haven't done in several yrs. The sad part is it is a very simple trick but for the best of me I don't remember how it is done. I have been trying to do it and my mind has gone I guess.
The trick was called "JET-JET" had a small magic wand, 2 dice with holes in them, and two round shoe lace sized ropes. The trick is to use two people to hold ropes, tie the two dice onto the wand and remove the wand and the dice without the helpers turning loose of the ropes. It is done in the way you tie them together but I have to admit my brain has gone on vacation I think. Can anyone offer any relief to an old clown....lol Maybe be private e-mail or such??? Thanks,

your trick sound more advance then one i have but similar it is called the odd ball it has a ball and a plastic case both with holes in them you slide threw 2 strings and tie them only a single tie not really a knot then with 2 people holding onto the strings you pull off the case with the ball inside. how it is done is you fold both the strings in half and loop one around the other you hold your fingers over the looped strings and when you push the strings threw the holes you stop at the 2 loops together then you tie the sting but not in a full knot just cross the strings and put one under the other thats it. by tieing the string when you pull off the case and ball the people will be holding 2 stright strings if you don't tie they will each have a string folded in half and the trick is givin away i hope this helps some what like i said yours sound more advance as you have more objects
