My new thimble routine

I recently added a new thimble routine that I will be adding to the rest of the thimble routines that I already have. I've been working on this for a few days and after about 306 practices, Yes! I'm counting how many times Okay? Okay! I have some new ideas using thimbles and my plan is to take them to a whole new level. I plan on entering FISM in about 20 more or so years after my son goes off to college and I retire. I think it's a nice goal don't you? If that doesn't work out I was thinking of maybe getting a job at Joannes Fabrics and be a thimble salesmen. The thimble business is booming and when I win the FISM 2033 the thimble business will be at a all time high. Right now I'm negotiating a contact with a fabric store where I will be standing in the window doing my thimble routine.


It could lead to possible traveling to different stores. This got me thinking about magic products. I will have another 2 products in just a few weeks. One of course is "Turbo Tube" and the other is "Scorched" which is still in the testing stages, but I can tell you one thing! for Bicycle card enthusiasts. You're going to love this one. It's very powerful magic. So since I've been working so hard on my thimbles I started thinking that maybe sometime soon I'm going to put out my own thimble instructional dvd. I've always wanted to produce a thimble dvd routine. So this is a goal that I'm going to be pursuing  and taking seriously.

I think the most difficult thing to do when your rehearsing your magic is that no matter where you're at, you have to pretend that you're doing a live show. That means that even though you're in a kitchen like me practicing you have to use body language and eye contact as if you were live on stage. This is very hard for me to do sometimes. Especially when I'm in the kitchen. I guess I could of used my studio, but I guess it's also good to put yourself in uncomfortable places to practice, that way it mimics real life performances.
