Looks like I missed this the first time around on our previous “Stick-a-Pip” post. It appears that there is a pretty cool accompanying demo video on youtube to help fancy it. Assuming that these are undetectable, this stick-a-pip system may be a viable solution to simple gaff card creation. Watch the video below or visit the homepage.
Zxandrexz @ youtube has a new more extensive and detailed video tutorial on making gaff cards that he would like to share with you all. Check it out below and don’t forget to rate.
Its great to see more and more gaff card creation guides showing up all over the net. Mrfuzz @ Instructables has posted his “Ultimate Guide to Making Gaff Cards“. Nothing that has not already been covered in the “Phatus Guide to Creating Gaff Cards” but nonetheless this proves that more and more people are making their own gaff cards using similar techniques. Link to instructable…
You know that round here at Phatus Magic we are all about saving you more time in your creations. From printing 6 gaffs at once to easier methods of creation. Here is one more spice on the rack to assist you should you share that same philosophy.

We are now releasing a public re-distributable copy of our Gaff Card Creation Guide (aka PGCGC) in PDF format. This guide is much more extensive and detailed than any of our current public projects regarding gaff card creation. There is even a chapter involving an experimental method of applying a new finish to your gaff should you use loose the old finish in the blanking process. It also includes a section at the end that we will use to append information and advancements obtained from the community. This will be an on going, updated document with more future releases to come. Please feel free to re-distribute this document as much as you like. We only ask that you credit the Phatus Magic Community if you do.
If you would like to add information and experiments to this project, please feel free to email us or post something in the forums.
