I wouldn't be without mine. Bought it off one of those Sales TV Channel
places. Great piece of kit to get the joints rights on trunking Etc. And
you don't have to think to do it. Set the little template, lock it in
position around the angle. Set the box to the template, insert material to
be cut and start sawing along the saw guide. It is that easy.

I would recommend getting one if you have a need for it. Although I got
mine for one job with a load of box cutting, it has done cornice, skirt,
trunk (loads of it) and lots, lots, lots more stuff. Get one.

looks good, but i wouldent buy it because of the word magic,

bloody hate it when companies use that word (hard for me to walk past all
thos damn jml tv's in shops where everything they sell is soddin magic)

magic is fake... tricks to make it look real, so to me any item with the
word magic in it is also just a trick to make it look good..... yes watching
paul bloody daniels as a kid has mentaly scared me, hence my loathing of the
word magic.

Demonstrated on QVC every time I channel hopped. It seemed to do the job
however the people demonstrating these things always make it look easy
and never have real world cases where the plaster curves outwards by
half an inch at the ceiling!

Are you an optician then? I've just ordered some new specs from Glasses

My hair stopped at 5 foot 7 inches and I continued on up to 5 foot 9 and a
half, so we all grow through it eventually. :-)

I used to be called myself Mr Magic. But that was for electrical
installations. Although, I can make a plate of biscuits disappear before
your eyes.

Don't you still get asked if you'd do a corporate gig or two a year? I
love magic tricks.

Yes, I do the odd corporate gig for previous clients, a few wedding
receptions & private parties by reccomendation, but nothing like as much as
I used to do.

I love magic tricks.


Glad to hear it - although we prefer to call them 'effects' :-)

It's magic. I still believe you can pull matter out of the air and turn it
into a bunny rabbit. :-)

Nice to hear you still have an audience. We are loosing the power of
illusion today. Kids, and grown ups, are more concerned with how to get
their next fix of violence and fear, instead of relaxing and enjoying the
power of magic.

Like the parrot said to the magician when the titanic sank "OK, the rest of
your tricks were rubbish, but that one where you make the ship disappear.
Fantastic" :-)

Men who go bald at the front of their head, are good thinkers. Men who go
bald at the back of their head, are good lovers. Men who go bald from front
to back of their head, think they are good lovers. :-)

Going silver haired is natures way of keeping us safe at night. You can't
miss a reflective head of grey hair at night, when you shine a torch on it.
