Description
This is a great version of J.F. Orrin’s Uplift effect. Uplift was invented by J.F. Orrin c. 1945 and improved by Jack Hughes c. 1947 and it is found in Jack’s book World of Magic Vol. 2. This effect is easy to learn and perform. The routine is not as extensive as the Ultimate version released by Len Belcher, but it is easier to set-up and perform so that is worth considering.
This version is made well and I like how the stack of blocks is the same height as the tube, which of course is not possible for the Belcher version and other similar props such as Strat-O-Sphere.
Effect: One RED and Two YELLOW round blocks are passed for examination. A spectator places his ring in the well which has been let into the RED block and closes this compartment with a plug lid.
The three blocks are now stacked one upon the other with the RED one at the bottom. While covered with a tube the RED block first rises to the center and then to the top of the stack.
From this position it is handed to the spectator to recover his ring
