Does anyone have any ideas on how to make a false backed chair? I'd really like to have it for the vanishing of Houdini. Any recommendations? I'm not a skilled builder, so, something simple, yet effective would be awesome! If anyone has seen the final lair scene in Phantom of the Opera, you'll know what I'm talking about.
This sounds almost identical to an illusion known among magicians as the DeKolta Chair. Do a Google search, you'll find articles, YouTube videos, and written construction plans for sale from magic shops and Amazon.
