Dean Dill – Dean’s Triangle

Dean's Triangle by Dean Dill – Martin's Magic Collection

I think it fair so say that this was Dean’s masterpiece, every aspect of the the prop and performance was thought out to perfection.

The routine is basically a four-phase Coins Through Table effect, and every move has been painstakingly thought through and the performance DVD by Dean himself takes you through all the steps. If only more manufacturers would follow through with this much attention to detail, we’d have a lot more great magic, and a lot less trash filling our shelves.

This effect is not self working, but it is certainly not difficult either, and when you spend this much on an item it is certainly worth spending a bit of time getting used to the routine. Once you have mastered the moves you will blow them away every time.

Effect: These are the 4 phases of the routine.

  1. Spectator holds three coins- Magician takes first coin from spectator and pushes it through the table top.
  2. Magician holds the two remaining coins above the table and one visibly melts away and falls right through the table top.
  3. The table frame is removed to show a clear surface. The third coin goes through the solid Plexiglas and joins the two coins that are resting in the bowl beneath. (after this phase pause to let everything sink in. Almost forcing them to ask you to do it again. Then go into the 4th phase.)
  4. Finally all three coins are placed on top of the glass and with absolutely no cover one of the three chosen coins melts through the glass.
