Note: doesn't look Italian.

But he knows conjurer tricks for sure! Here comes my latest effort at making increasingly tiny mansions. Share and enjoy!

Toybox....
I really liked that one !! (Nice little trick indeed !!)

Has the name been inspired by the recent movie

The Prestige

(by Christopher Nolan) ??

If you haven't seen it, I can really recommend it to you (and everybody else)..... it's one of the best films in recent years (and there have been a lot of good movies recently)..... starring Michael Caine, Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman and the ever-lovely Scarlett Johansen.

Plus...David Bowie's making a surprise appearance as Nicholas Tesla, inventor of the vacuum tube.

It's a wonderful film about magic.

I just watched that recently for the first time, really loved it!
Read this unless you plan to watch the movie:
Frighting how he had to clone himself alot to preform a trick. And making the person who was being cloned go through the trap door and and going into the water tank that kills him. Very interesting movie. By the way, I'm not that patient. How long do you wait there?? The falling platform doesn't take jack with him! :o

[Toybox]

Nope, that was an episode of Columbo (

Now you see me

). Hence the first comment in my post btw

You don't have to go anywhere. Just wait, see him perform his magic trick, and voilà .

How long is it that you have to stand there? I'm getting impatient and jacks, well, sleeping... Do you need to be in one certain place????

[Wingy]

I think he forgot to adjust the trapdoor.... or forgot how to preform the trick!

[Toybox]

Just down where the arrow points. No trick? No appearing and disappearing? [smiley=huh.gif]
