Default magic cases

Hi clownies - Skiddles here,

Does anybody have any favorite magic boxes that you use for your magic shows? I have a nice big old steamer trunk with wheels on the bottom to tote it around and the inside has drawers. HOWEVER it is soo heavy.

What do you use? Any ideas?

You're talking about what we haul our stuff in to parties, right?

I have one of those pro suitcase tables. It's on wheels and not really heavy. You lift up the top part so you can use it as a table for your magic shows. The only thing that drives me nuts is that the top shelf always falls down during transport. Other than that, it's worked out pretty well.

Question Mark Magic cases

Thanks Pickles,

If you are handy with the computer could you pretty please post a picture or sketch of it? Did you make it or buy it?

Me? Handy with the computer? Just ask any clown how long it took me to figure out the avatar for the chat room! lol!

I'll see if I can enlist one of my techno-whiz children to do it for me.

I bought the case, I think at Daytona Magic during one of their 30 percent off sales.

A friend on mine uses a leather doctor bag with an attachment for a Eureka Table. I'm considering switching to this for my hobo, as the look fits well.
I also prefer case tables myself for my magic stuff. For balloon supplies, larger magic tricks, and general storage - I use a table similar to the one Charles "Chaz" Misenheimer uses. You can see it by clicking on the link below, and scrolling down to "Strolling Magic at the Zoo."
