Sugar glass is essentially a large piece of candy disguised as real glass like beer bottles and such. Used for years in Hollywood special FX, this stuff is a score for any performer. In this tutorial, instructables user ERNesbitt will show you how to craft some fake glass of your own. Unfortunately they do not discuss the molding process for making bottles and its likes however this tutorial should get you started. Add a little fake blood and you have the potential for some rather gross and stunning illusions this Halloween.

Magicmagazine.com has a kinda neat Ipod video for download that will give you coffee, xray vision, and even an electric shaver. They also have a video here where cards fall behind the screen and you stab a card with your pen and pull it out from behind the screen
Also check out these great iphone links sent in to us by GaffCards.
