thanks Ralf, very nice website, excluding the German i like the sealed decks in the bottles, very clever

I have a decent collection of card decks. I'd like to get one of them in a bottle some day.

Damn Ralf, that deck in the bottle would be THE x-mas preset for a friend of mine (poker player)
but if it's true that only like 10 people know the secret it's most unlikely that i ever find out how to do that

I tried some easier folded cards with a piece of paper which i def. will try on real cards as soon as i get some

The woven bills/cards look stunning! Do you all know how to make them or is it just trial and error?

i think you just cut them and work it out, like a puzzle

.... and i would love to work out the deck in the bottle

[Stingray14k]

what i thought of! well i will give it a shot if i hate on the silver revo

[Ralf]

@stingray:
No. I know all off them on how to make them. And i realy did only cut and fold.i swear! In the next days i make a few. More impossibottles. Hop.e you all like them.

So. Sorry for the last words last night. I used my Mobile to wrote the last Topic.

Most of the Cards and Bills(now i have over 135 different designs) are from Feinds and other Peoples who send me Photos from their cards and Bills.

As i said before: I never used Glue! Because i wanted to give those Foldings as a Souvenir and use a few in my Magic Routines and lat the spectators keep thhe Folding as a souvenir.

For the Bottles: My Freind Allen from Washington DC helped me to make those. The Selaed Deck with the white Band is an Idea from my wife.

I´m new on the Impossibottle Puzzel.
I make following Bottles:
Bottles with Golfballs
Bottles with Sealed Decks of Cards
Bottles with a Corksrew from the inside
Bottles with Tennisballs-Ping Pong Balls
Bottles with Coins
Bottles with a wooden Arrow
Bottles with Padlocks
Bottles with Screw and Nut
Or i Mixed the Objects Together (Arrow thru Bottle and Golfballs).
I know the method to get the Golfballs to smaller holes, but i didn´t have the right tools (in this moment).
And as i said before, i never used Glue.

If anybody have a question, please let me know. I help you, but i think you all are the "Masters" of Puzzles. I´m a Hobby Magican Ralf.

I had a go at folding the Looping Loops ( designed by Kohfuh Sato ), of which I found a picture on Ralf's excellent blog : http://impossiblefoldings.blogspot.co.u ... loops.html

It says "the reader can try his luck and solve the puzzle"

So it was out with the scissors again, and after much tangling and thinking, I got something like it.
It is quite surprising how it all works out.
