HAVE YOU EVER WANTED TO BUILD YOUR OWN ILLUSIONS,

but felt unsure, and wished for expert guidance to do it better?

  NOW YOU CAN!

  Introducing:

'Building Your Own Illusions, The Complete Video Course'
  by Gerry Frenette, Magic Makers Inc. Canada.

"So often during my career I have heard from magicians who wanted to
build an illusion, and needed help. We realized that these people
were not in the market to buy an illusion from any professional builder.
Maybe they are starting out, or perform only part time and can't
justify the cost yet. They are frustrated, as there is only sketchy
information available. The cost of trial-and-error and undeceptive, or
unprofessional looking props is also too high. So there is a tremendous
need for this course. It's never been done before. No professional builder
has ever shared their secrets and techniques -- until NOW."

You will:

* Learn how to do everything from driving a screw properly to advanced
  building techniques in mechanics and engineering
* Learn how to get a nice paint finish without spray equipment
* Be able to build illusions right in your home (in a small space)
* See exactly how it's done as you watch Gerry build 3 complete illusion
  projects from start to finish
* Learn dozens of tips, ideas and techniques, and use proven,
  stage-tested measurements
* Learn what materials and tools to use
* Understand how to make your illusion as deceptive as possible
* Get 5 DVD's packed full of information, plus a 6th bonus data disc
containing drawings, blueprints, documents, and photos.

* PLUS: Early Bird Bonuses and exciting Contests where you
can win valuable prizes!

It looks right now like this will be ready around the end of January.
