What every beginning magician needs

Are you new to card tricks? Used to be in them but lost intrest and came back? Well here are some things I would recommend to any beginning or experienced magicians:

- Several decks; some card tricks require extensive time to preset the deck(s). This will help out a lot.

- Briefcase (optional); and easy and nice way to keep everything neat and in-order.

- Card trick book; I don't do this, since I mostly get my tricks over the internet.

Thats all I would really recommend. Maybe a few books on how to do card tricks, like doing the double lift.

Thanks for visiting.

I'm not being a jerk, but I'd have to agree: this is a waste. You should ask to have this one deleted.....and then start over.

This is like:
"How to take a walk"
1st, put on your shoes
2nd, walk
The end

This is not an instructable. It is hardly even a forum topic. What are you thinking?

I can say only one thing. WHAT??? OK I lied, There is no point to this. Why would you post this? Most magicians also use quarters (or silver dollars cause they're easier to handle) to do tricks with (like disappearance tricks or the "over the knuckle roll"). Of course if your going to do card tricks, you should have at least one deck of cards unless your going to rip some of the cards then you'd need more. But this is to show instructions, not just to post basic materials needed to do magic tricks. Perhaps you should teach people how to put together a "good" starters kit for magic or even better teach a trick. Now that's all I've got to say.
