FEATURED GIMMICK #1: METAMORPH
The definition of VISUAL magic. An exciting new utility device capable of wearing 1001 perfect disguises. Change a $5 bill into $100， a Three of Clubs into a King of Hearts， the list of shocking applications goes on and on. Hand-crafted by Roy Kueppers.
FEATURED GIMMICK #2: SCAR TISSUE
An uber-casual fusion effect with a taxi receipt. The meticulous design of the gimmick allows you to incorporate 'local details' and perform an exciting variety of dead easy handlings. Instant resets. Expect to carry it with you ALWAYS.
FEATURED GIMMICK #3: MAXIMUM CAPACITY
A box of Tic Tacs mints transforms into a solid， clear plastic BLOCK. Portable， visceral， unforgettable. Includes several different handlings from low-key to 'full on.' Another gorgeous gimmick hand-crafted by master magic maker Roy Kueppers.
FEATURED GIMMICK #4: UNHOLY
This specially-machined gimmick can be used to create a variety of surprising effects， including the addition of a marvellously VISUAL moment of magic to the Jay's world-wide hit 'HOLY MOLY.'
FEATURED GIMMICK #5: INFILTRATOR
'THE GIMMICKS LAB' includes a starter pack of the custom-designed 'INFILTRATOR' gimmicks. Cause an insane variety of objects to appear inside a packet of 'Sweet N Low' sugar! The packet can even be examined and TORN OPEN by a spectator!

THE AWESOME COLLECTION OF 8 BONUS EFFECTS!1.TEMPORARY INSANITY
A total tease. In a matter of moments， a ring passes off， then back on to， a plastic drinking straw. It will take some practice， but SO worth it.
2.OUTBREAK
The PERFECT party deception. Magically 'squeeze' a potato chip out of a factory sealed chip bag， not once， but TWICE. This one's all about the repeat baby.
3.PARTY ANIMAL
A mystical sculpture demonstration. Also， a ridiculously practical 'transition piece' involving two items which， though extremely different， could pass as twins. Created to 'rip it up' in restaurants + bars.
4.CLUSTER
A finger ring melts onto a plastic drinking straw that has been tied into several knots BY A SPECTATOR.
5.M+MENTAL
A truly sweet， self-working demonstration of 'mind control' involving an ordinary bag of M+M candies. (Peanut， not plain.)
6.DISLOCATION
An inexplicable transposition， disguised as a friendly offer of a piece of gum. The final image nails the coffin SHUT.
7.DERANGED
Want to f**k with the vaguely fascist logo of a ubiquitous pop culture merchandiser? If so， this illusion is definitely for you.
8.INPOSSIBLE
An initialled coin finds its way into a borrowed condiment pack of jam， honey or peanut butter. Napkins not included.

A NOTE FROM JAY SANKEY ABOUT 'THE GIMMICKS LAB' PROJECT
"The Gimmicks Lab project is an innovative collection of some of the most creative and practical deceptions I’ve developed in years. There are many things about these ‘special effects’ that make them so special. For starters， I had the opportunity to produce them with master illusion designer， Roy Kueppers. I worked closely with Roy to develop the extremely popular ‘Slyder’ gimmick， and Roy has also shared his rare manufacturing talents with David Roth and Ellusionist. And to guarantee that these effects and gimmicks are as practical and hard-hitting as possible， I also received invaluable feedback from Richard Sanders， Jeff Stone， Mike Skutt， Christopher Kavanagh， Ray Chance and Trent Rentsch. Each of the effects taught on 'THE GIMMICKS LAB' project also involves ‘a new breed of gimmick.’ Gimmicks that are not a substitute for sleight-of-hand， but rather a perfect COMPLIMENT. Gimmicks that are designed to work ingeniously with every day， ordinary objects， items you would normally find lying around at school or work， as well as stuff you would typically carry in your wallet. These are modern effects and gimmicks developed with the power of the ‘unplanned performance’ very much in mind."
