I was looking for the non folding version but they had none in stock. I was disappointed that the
“cloth hinge” is cheap duct tape. As a performer I wish they would have used Gaffer Tape. It would
hold up better under heat. The special adapter for the drill is just a bolt and does not secure into
the drill. Don’t worry they let you know this in the instructions and tell you it does not make a
difference. Trust me it does. The bolt works it way out of the drill. Also because the screw is non
locking it quickly backs out and the disc starts to collapse. The black washer had a lot of the
paint chipped off and will require repainting. Over all this will be a great prop for the show and a
crowd pleaser but will require much rebuilding to make it work properly. Extremely over priced for
the quality but if you can find one for $35 or less it would be a good buy.
After reworking it I was able to use it in a few shows. The reaction was amazing and I could not believe the response from the people. I may start closing with it. Still wish I could have found the one piece version and that it would come with a bolt made to fit in the drill. Still find it to be way over priced vs quality. But I must say the audience reaction redeemed it a lot
These are non issues. The tape can be replaced. And as far as the drill goes...any hand crank drill will work. Just tighten the nose before your show and you are good to go. I close EVERY stage show with this and it KILLS EVERY TIME!
