3-No-Evil-Shells - Collector Set
The "3-No-Evil Shells" are a collector-quality set. Can be displayed in many different ways. Like good vs the misdirection of evil.
The red ball can represent evil. Can they find which one has evil in them? The devil's greatest accomplishment is convincing people he does not exist with his clever misdirection.
For an ending surprise, the evil ball is placed at the tip of the shell and a clear trap is placed over both and moved over to the player to put their finger on top of the shell trap to hold all down to the surface.
The other two shells are shown empty and at the same time, the hands are shown they only hold the shells. The two empty shells are placed back down. Now the question do you have the locked evil ball beneath your finger or was it all some kind of misdirection to escape.
The player lifts the shell under the shell trap to find the ball is not there and the shell has a solid bottom with the ball inside the shell that can rattle inside when the shell is shaken.
The set comes with a custom zipper case where everything stays in place.
The shells come with the 21st-century bottom ridge design that keeps the ball in the shells when moved in any direction.
You can demonstrate how it is a fair game before they play and they can be fully examined.
The shells fit in between the fingers very well, if you want to shuffle all three shells with only one hand to display your sleight of hand skills. The detail of the shells will stand out with true amazement.

This turtle is a realistic hand sculptured shell that the mold was made from. Each shell is made by doing a two step casting. The first step is applying a cold cast bronze exterior layer, then the interior is made of black resin.
The second step bonds both materials together as one.
This brings the right weight and a good contrasting color match. The shell weight is about 50 grams.
The shells are very easy to grip. The fingers fit very well between the turtle legs and the bottom edge of the turtle shell.
The set comes with a bronze turtle shell ball holder that holds three 3/8" yellow turtle eggs.
Also comes with a 1" yellow sponge ball that can be used for an added surprise if you like.
The sponge ball can be loaded into a shell when turning a shell back over on the surface and the shell can even be re-lifted without the ball falling out to appear to be an empty shell. The shell can also be moved without the sponge ball coming out.
To produce the ball you just lift the shell with a little wiggle on the surface.
This is a beautiful shell set!

This shell has some unique design features. The sure rim grip is elevated 5/16" from the surface to have a solid grip on a shell for good shell control.
The bottom of the shell has an inner & outer bottom rim tapper, for smooth ball steals & loads.
The inside of the shell has equal headspace in all areas of the shell, so the ball will never touches the top wall of the shell. This means the ball can be anywhere in the shell when releasing the shell and there will never be any movement of the shell.
This interior shell design brings the feature that the shells can also work with a cork ball.
The use of the cork ball was how the shell game was originally done without the use of any shills in play. Which is how the magician must play, without any shills in play.
When using a cork ball with these type shells the game is now a unpredictable game for even the one that knows how the shell game is done. Because the cork ball will stay inside the shell when the shells are moved around on the surface that makes it a fair game. The only thing that is unfair is the shell operator. The shell operator has full control on when to play fair to setup the con and when to play unfair to win. Also, everything can be fully examined at anytime without switching anything out.
The use of a cork ball with the shells does require a little different type handling than working with with a soft ball.
The handling is the same as the Bottom Ridge shell handling, that brings all the Bottom Ridge shell features without the bottom ridge. Cork ball handling instructions are included with purchase.

So what is a hedgehog? It is a small nocturnal old world mammal with a spiny coat and short legs, able to roll itself into a ball. They are getting popular for pets today. A curious type creature that is entertained by crawling into items. Like the shell set of 3 Hedgehogs in the shells. If you look at the inside of the shell, you will see the bottom of the Hedgehog is rolled up into a ball and its head out of the top of the shell.
The picture to the left is a baby Hedgehog that is rolled up into a ball. The object of the game is for the spectator to keep track on which shell has the baby Hedgehog that is the ball.
The picture to the left is a baby Hedgehog that is rolled up into a ball. The object of the game is for the spectator to keep track on which shell has the baby Hedgehog that is the ball.
The set comes with four larger 7/16" white soft textured balls. The white textured ball represents a baby hedgehog that is rolled up in a ball. The use of a softball working with the bottom ridge type shell brings a whole different meaning for using a softball. Only for the reason of not bringing any sound for the player to hear which shell has the ball. Unlike other shells, everything can be fully examined at any time without switching anything out. As the only unfair thing is the operator, not the items being used.
The shells have the new bottom ridge design. This brings many features that will even fool the ones that are in the know of how the shell game is normally done. This new design brings full control of the ball. You are never forced to take the ball. The shell with the ball can be moved around on the surface fairly without the ball coming out. This is a big feature, as you are able to show that the ball is where it should be by lifting the shells during the shuffle to get them to follow the shell you want them to follow. Once they see that everything looks fair you steal the ball after the shell had just been showed to have the ball.
Then the ball is loaded into another shell after you just showed it to be an empty shell. The great thing is now after loading a different shell all the shells can be moved fairly without the ball coming out, unlike other shells.
This makes them an unpredictable shell.

The solid hedgehog tube cap can also hold a hidden extra ball. This can come in handy for the ones that want to do something creative with their shell routine.

What the Hidden Bottom Ridge design shell brings to the table for the 3 shell game.
It gives the shell operator full control of the ball inside the shell. The shell operator is never forced to take the ball. This makes it an unpredictable shell. You can even fool the ones that are in the know of how the standard shell game is done. As no one can predict when you steal or load the ball from the shell. The Hidden Bottom Ridge feature gives the ball a free rolling path inside the shell. But you can steal the ball anytime you choose too.
This is not a gimmick. It is just the opposite, it makes it a fair shell to sell the con of the game. The hidden ridge never holds or hides the ball in the shell. The softball is looked on as being used for a different reason. Only for not bringing any sound inside the shell. Everything can even be fully examined without switching anything out.
The only type shell with no clues, no rules and nothing to hide.

The only type shell with no clues, no rules and nothing to hide.
The shells are easy to grip and control. The shell set can work well for larger type crowds, as the shell is 2" diameter x 1-1/2" high and the bright orange color makes the shells very easy to see from a distance. The set comes with larger type yellow 7/16" seed balls that also stand out with a good contrast to the shells. The shells can work well with even larger balls, like 1/2" or 9/16" working for large crowds.
The softballs are one of best balls you will find to work the shell game. The softness of this type ball brings smoother ball steals and will form to the fingers for easy ball control with your fingers.
The shells have an entirely flat surface that has no visual clues. Another cool feature with these type shells, after you steal the ball from one shell and then load the ball into another shell the newly loaded shell can be moved around fairly on the surface without the ball coming out.

This is a great set for a pirate theme display. Comes with five larger 7/16" yellow balls that represent the pirate's gold.
The object of the game is for the player to keep track of which pirate barrel has the gold to win.
But a pirate never plays fair!
Comes with many extra accessories to deliver some fun surprises while the spectator tries to find which of the three pirate barrels has the gold. All the shells fit in a custom 3" Black tube with two solid custom pirate end caps, Pic 1, 2 & 3. The top cap has a hole on the bottom of cap that holds an unknown extra ball, Pic 3. The top cap is taken off to pour out the shells and the little barrel with the ball. The cap with the extra ball is placed out of the play area along with the tube case and both will come back into play later, for your ending surprise. You take the ball out of the little barrel and explain the rules of the game on what they need to do to win. You put the little barrel out of the play area also.
The game is started and displayed where everything appears to be fair but the gold is never in the barrel they pick.
So you tell them that this time I'll make it where I can't cheat. You place a barrel over the ball and put the tube case over the barrel and moved it over to the player and you have them hold all down with their finger on top.
"Now the gold is trapped under your finger tip. The other two shells are picked up to show they are empty and nothing in your hands.
"It appears you finally have the gold." "But that would be too easy, now wouldn't it?
I think the gold is really in this barrel."'
As all of the above is going on with the debate on which barrel has the gold, you have plenty time to finger clip four gold doubloon coins from where ever it is the easiest for you. You also get rid of the stolen ball at the same time.
Picture 5 shows the finger clipped coins but without holding the shell.
Most likely they will stick with the barrel under their fingertip. It won't matter. As none of the barrels have the ball at this point.
The player takes the tube shell trap off and lifts the barrel to find no gold again.
Now you take hold of the barrel you told them that had the gold and as soon as the barrel is picked up off the surface the four gold coins are released where it will look like they came out of the barrel.
"I told you this barrel had the gold and real gold coins. Not the fake stuff that ended up over here.
You push the ball out from under the top cap,as in pic 6. I like to put all the coins back in the barrel like in putting things away for them to see that all four coins do fit in the barrel, Pic 5. This will help re-enforce the coins did come out of the pirate barrel.
These are just a few ideas on how this set could be used as a starting point for you to explore and find what could be a better way for you. There are many different ways this set could be used to bring some scallywag fun.

The circus and carnival barker's were well known to wear a boater type hat in the old days. This set comes with many features to build a entertaining routine with surprise and hands on fun for the spectator. The shells have entire flat surface with the hat rim being beveled on the interior and exterior that brings a smooth steal or load of the pea from the shell. The shell is very easy to grip and is balanced so well that the hat can be flipped up or back down by pressing on the back of the hat rim. This little hat can hold up to nine US quarter coins for a shocking surprise. It's hard to believe that all these coins could fit inside this little hat.
This 9 coin surprise would normally come after the player has lost a few times on picking the wrong shell with the pea, So to give them a better chance, a hat is place over the pea and covered with a clear shell trap. All is moved over to the player for the player to hold down with their finger. The other two shells are shown to be empty and placed back down. Now you try to talk the player into picking a different hat than the one they hold their finger on. " If I was playing for money I think this hat would be the money winning hat." Pointing to another hat that had just been shown to be empty. Most likely they will stay with the hat under their finger. It doesn't matter at this point as none of the hats have the pea. The player takes the clear trap off the hat and lifts the hat to find the pea is gone.
(Optional) Clear dome tube case can work as two shell traps. (see nickel/silver Bowler Hat set images.)
Using two shell traps to cover two shells has been used by many magicians like done by Gary Ouellet - Supershells routine.
The same type effect can be done with this clear dome cap and the tube case to cover two shells. This can work very well for your ending surprise because it is impromptu items being used. You also don't need to carry extra items to cover the shells.

" Like I said this hat was the money winning hat." The hat you told them to pick is lifted and 9 coins come falling out on the surface. This is like the cups & balls surprise effect with the items coming out of it will appear that all these coins could not all fit inside.
The coins are all picked up off the surface and placed inside the hat to show they do all fit inside the hat. But the real question is, how did you get all of them coins in the hat after you had shown the hat empty?
The coins are all picked up off the surface and placed inside the hat to show they do all fit inside the hat. But the real question is, how did you get all of them coins in the hat after you had shown the hat empty?
So where is the pea? The barrel is picked up that is out of the play area and the pea is rolled out of the barrel. At the beginning of the game the pea was taken out of the barrel for play, the barrel was placed out of the play area and was never touched again till the end.
Now you give them one last chance to play a Midway game of tossing coins into the hat to win, like at a carnival. You take the coins out of the hat and place the hat on the other side of your close-up mat. You toss a few coins from your side to show how it is done. "To make it more interesting, if you can toss all nine coins in the hat, you'll win a buck. "But you have to get all nine coins inside the hat to win the cash." Getting the last coins in the hat is almost impossible. If they do, its only by rare luck.
The hat is made well for this coin toss game because the hat rim is thick and sits low to the surface where the hat won't tip-over from the coins hitting it.
This set comes with the soft type peas and can use the standard soft pea handling or our suggested handling.
The shells can also be used with cork balls for the advance users.

These little hat shells are one of the finest designed shells to work with a cork ball that you will find. Using a cork ball with the shells takes the shell game to a much higher level of display of the game. Working the shells with a cork ball is for the advance users. When using a cork ball with the shells it brings all the features that the bottom ridge type shells bring to the table, without the ridge bottom. The shells can be moved around on the surface where the ball stays inside the shell that makes it a fair shell game. You have full control of the ball and are never forced to take the ball till you want to. This will even fool the ones that are in the know of how the shell game works. This is because now it is not predictable of when you will steal the pea. The game is done the way the game was originally done by sleight of hand.
This makes it a true con game without having to have any shill's in play. There is nothing unfair with the shells or the cork balls. There are no gimmicks. The only unfair thing is the operator that can change the game to be a unfair game after the mark has been setup to follow the shell with the pea you want them to follow. Everything can be fully examined at anytime without switching anything out. A shell game with no clues, no rules, and anything to hide.
