Have you ever been to a magic show, sitting there mesmerized as

you asked yourself, “How did they do that?” As you know, magic

is more an illusion, creating the vision that something is

happening although it is not. While magicians use many

different tools of the trade, one of the most popular is the

invisible thread. Trying to get magicians to divulge their

secrets associated with the invisible thread is near impossible.

However, we do want to provide you with some highlights and

tips about the top seven magic trick tips performed using

invisible thread.

What is “Invisible Thread”?

The first of the seven magic trick tips using invisible thread

is to understand what it is. This type of thread is actually a

very fine stand of nylon used primarily for getting small

objects to levitate. For years, magicians worked with invisible

thread and their hands only, meaning they had to be very precise

in their movements for the magic tricks to appear flawless.

Today, magicians can use an invisible thread reel, which not

only dispenses the thread but it is also designed to retract it.

Because of this, the magician is able to maintain a constant

tension on the line so there are no mishaps in the performance.

Invisible Thread Reel Size

The second tip when using a thread reel is to use the

appropriate size. Since different objects need different types

of control, thread reels are made in a number of different

sizes. Typically, the longer the tube the more distance you

will get from the reel while the more tension the less distance.

For magicians, the idea is to use the smaller size invisible

thread reels for close-up work opposed to a larger reel for

distance. As far as size, a stage reel is capable of extending

35 feet, which means a magician could easily perform a “floating

bill” trick in the center of a room with no nearby walls.

However, if you want to really impress a crowd, you could

perform the same floating bill trick outdoors simply by

anchoring the reel to the ground. With this, it would appear

the trick was impossible and the crown cheers.

What about Tension?

Third on the list of seven trick tips using invisible thread is

using the right tension. As you pull the invisible thread out

of the reel, there will be an increase in tension. What happens

at some point is that the pull will become too much for the

thread, causing it to break. If you want to put more tension on

the thread reel, wind more of the invisible thread into a wax

ball. What you do not want to do is add additional winds on the

elastic, which would only make it cumbersome.

Floating Objects

Next on the list is insight into working with floating objects.

When using invisible thread for a magic trick, keep in mind that

you want something that is light enough not to sag by putting

too much weight on the thread. The key is to choose objects

that you can easily move and maintain in a position in space,

which is why the floating bill is such a popular choice. Other

choices to use an invisible thread magic trick include ring

fingers, an empty soda can, etc. The greatest benefit of using

a thread reel is that when you walk away from your floating

object, you are actually transferring energy to the reel, which

can then be used to make the bill float from the floor to your

hand – magically.

Those Darn Lights

Next, to use invisible thread, you have to know how to use

correct lighting. If you are a magician or just practicing to

be one and you want to perform tricks with the invisible thread,

remember that lighting is crucial. The two main factors to

consider when using the thread reel are light source and

clothing. Typically, the best conditions for a magic trick with

invisible thread are cloudy days and the worst, direct lighting

that comes from behind you. With this, the light will only

reflect off the thread, thus being seen by the audience. For

clothing, anything dark will serve as a backdrop for the thread,

thus making it easier to see. For this reason, you should go

with lighter, non-reflective type clothing. Magic is always fun

and with some practice, you will soon learn a number of magic

tricks with invisible thread, perfect for entertaining family

and friends.

Methodology

The sixth of the seven magic trick tips using invisible thread

has to do with methods of performing the tricks, such as the

Hoop Pass. This is actually considered one of the greatest

tricks you can do with the invisible thread reel, which involves

passing a solid hoop over a bill. The key is to use a ring with

a relatively thick stock, which will put less strain on the

thread as it goes over the metal hoop. Lay the hoop on the

thread so it is between you and the floating bill. Then, with

your hand, scoop the ring through so the thread is now on the

back of the left hand. Next, use the right hand to pass the

hoop over the bill. To complete the trick, all you do is let

the thread slide off from the back of your hand. Remember, this

is just one of many methods used with the invisible thread, so

have fun practicing them all.

Finishing the Show

The final tip is that whatever trick being performed using

invisible thread and/or a reel, it should never kill the effect.

In other words, you want to keep your audience wanting more.

If you carry a trick on too far, you will lose the interest of

the audience so it would be far better to keep the tricks short

and sweet. In addition, put some meaning and emphasis in your

performances to leave your audience with a memory of your magic

ability. We recommend you use the invisible thread late in your

show, which will end the performance on a fun note.
