For the life of me I can not get this to work with me without the participant having to take off at least one hand off the door. Please help give more explanation because it is a great winter theme trick.

Worth the price.

I emailed Josh Burch at his website to get a better explanation on the handling, and he responded in minutes!!!! I am so impressed with his prompt, personal help and would give him 10 stars if possible. Compliment to Penguin for hosting such cool magicians on their site! To help others with explanation of the handling. Have the participant hold the two doors with elbows up high. This makes the hands invert so if your looking at them as the participant than the index is on top and thumb on the bottom of the doors. After the magician does the fold and "pushes through the door", have the participant drop his elbows (tell them to hold the doors like they would hold a book) which will rotate the wrist and now the thumb is on top and the index is on the bottom and VIOLA! the inside of the cottage is now showing. You may notice the image of the inside is upside down, but you can correct this by initially handing the winter cottage doors upside down in the beginning of the trick to have it right side up at the end of the trick.

The Winter Cottage by Josh Burch is a great theme for the winter, but for the life of me, I can not get it to work without the participant letting go of one of the doors. Can anyone help me?

So its brilliant in all it methods...but even for fun the marked cards make the effects "feel" dirty and sure enough integrated to the method. The Magician Failure theme always feels like up is down don't you know...and feels like the cruel reality of the world not the wonder of Magic.

I performed this card Illusion to my 16 year old son, then one on one to my friends, it works perfectly Amazing! They said, it felt like magnets feeling that pulls the cards apart to our selective card! Amazing feeling and MIRACLE!!! 100% AWESOME!
