Does anyone have the explanation for the spinning, levitating orbiting card trick ?
KalamMekhar said:Hahahaha I remember doing this trick. A piece of fishing line is taped to the back of the card, and around the finger.
The trick involves the use of magnets and a small motor hidden inside the table or platform. The card has a small magnet attached to it and the table or platform also contains a magnet. The motor creates a magnetic field, causing the card to spin and levitate above the table.
Yes, the table or platform needs to be specially designed to contain the hidden motor and magnets. The card also needs to have a magnet attached to it in a specific location. The performer also needs to be familiar with operating the motor and controlling the speed and direction of the spinning card.
Yes, as long as the performer has the necessary setup and equipment, the trick can be performed anywhere. However, it is important to consider the surrounding environment and lighting as it can affect the visibility of the spinning card and the overall effect of the trick.
The time it takes to master this trick may vary for each individual depending on their skills and practice. It requires coordination, dexterity, and a good understanding of the mechanism behind the trick. With regular practice, one can become proficient in performing the trick within a few weeks or months.
Yes, it is important to handle the magnets with caution and keep them away from electronic devices and credit cards. The performer should also be careful when operating the motor and ensure that it is turned off when not in use. It is also recommended to perform the trick in a well-ventilated area, as the motor may produce some heat.
