This is a great DVD for learning to make your own gaffed cards. I always make "spare" cards when I buy a packet trick. Learning to split and make my own cards instead of re-buying a trick is certainly the way to go. It doesn't make sense to buy another DVD just to get the cards for a trick you have already purchased. Sometimes you'll run into a card that can't be made, that requires special printing, but for the most part what you need can be made right at home. I have saved money making my own gaffs, and have had fun doing it too.. A plus to all this is that Marty Grams is a genuinely nice man that puts high priority on people that purchase his magic. He is always just an email away if you need help or have questions. He can be found easily in a search from your computer. In the meantime,...buy this DVD and have some fun!

WOW. thats all i can say about this dvd. I truly loved it. Everything is so well organized in the dvd. It goes step by step on everything and even things you shouldn't do And it also gives a example. This is truly the best dvd ever for learning how to make gaff cards. The ten tricks like some people say aren't the best but shock alo't. I think that those 10 tricks are worth the dvd price itself. Splitting cards doesn't get much easier than this. He is very good at explaining. And in like 5 mintues you will master splitting cards. I really don't know what you are waiting for buy it now. I promise you if you are a card magician that likes gaffs will not be disappointed. Wanna know the best part? All the materials you need are under 10$. This dvd is the only one you will ever need for gaffs.

SOOO AWSOME! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 24th, 2007
This DVD is soooo awsome.I knew many secrets of tricks that required certain gaffed cards, but I didn't want to spend my money, so I got this DVD. You can save so much money by getting this DVD, and not buying those gaffed packet tricks. In all, you would spend -40 total, but making the gaffs will pay off. Martini teaches so well, and even a couple of the tricks together are worth the DVD in total.

Three words:ADD TO CART!
You won't know how much money you would save!

Great DVD Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 29th, 2005
This DVD is great. The instructions given on this DVD are simple and easy to follow. If you have ever developed our own trick but can't find that particular gaffed card you need or ever worn out the special card in a packet trick, this dvd is well worth the price. Be warned, it takes certain knack to do this, but with practice it becomes second nature.

Strange presentation, cards come out less than perfect Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 23rd, 2013
The gaffed cards don't come out as good as the ones you buy in the store. The other guy in the video may have literally nodded off a few times during this video.

However, I have found myself referring back to this video several times in my life, so this must make it valuable. Priced too high. Maybe if it didn't look like it was shot on my grandfather's 8mm...

If you have ever purchased gaff cards then you realize how expensive they can be, especially when you need multiples. Eventually that cost adds up. Why not do yourself a favor and get this DVD. it will eventually pay for itself. There is a bit of a learning curve to making your own gaff cards, but after a bit of practice combined with the excellent step-by-step instruction, you will be a card splitting pro.

Man they weren't kidding when they say it takes time, because it took my quite awhile to split cards. The information is so usefull and to be able to make your own gimmicked cards is just great. It's very detailed.

Very Informative Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 6th, 2010
If you've ever gotten a trick or read a book in which you've needed a special card, this DVD will teach you how to make them. You'll have to go out to the store and buy a few supplies but nothing too pricey. You'll probably ruin a few good cards before you get it right but it isn't too difficult. The cards you make wont be as good as ones you'll buy from a magic shop but they well certainly do the trick. If you want to learn to make these cards, get this and you'll be doing it in no time. As a bonus, they also teach you a few good tricks that you can use with these cards.

Tough to do, but worth it Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 4th, 2010
Martini goes into great depth on how to make just about any gimmicked card you can think of. This is great, especially for those hard to find gimmicks.

If you have the time and patience to make your own gimmicks, then get this. You will be able to do so much with this DVD.
