So, here’s the deal: The Chop Tube gives the classic chop cup a facelift that even your nan would approve of. Picture this: a tall, slender leather tube that’s not just for show. You can produce, vanish, and reveal multiple small balls in a way that’ll leave your audience scratching their heads (and maybe a bit jealous). And guess what? No internal magnets involved—just good old-fashioned sleight of hand.
With this handcrafted beauty, you’ll conjure up six or more small balls as if they’ve popped out of thin air. They’ll appear, disappear, and multiply right before their eyes, all with a level of clarity that’ll make you look like a wizard. Oh, and in one act, you can even pull three balls out in a row—no sneaky top loads needed here.
And for the grand finale? A massive ball makes its entrance from the tube, followed by the pièce de résistance: a wand passes through to prove it’s utterly empty. Talk about a mic drop moment!
It’s visually striking and practical, making it a superb choice for close-up gigs or parlor performances (you know, if you fancy a bit of a show-off).
Design & Structure
The Chop Tube flips the script with a non-magnetic design that’s a far cry from the usual chop cup look. It sports an upright, elongated tube that’s all tall, slender, and downright classy.
In action, you can present it as a die-stacking tube, a vintage glasses case, or even a medieval scroll holder (because why not?). It’s a touch narrower than your average chop cup, but don’t let that fool you—handling it feels smooth and natural, letting you pull off those slick moves with confidence once you’ve got the hang of it.
