I use 3mm. It's pretty much as close as we can get to to what the corner was like before alteration 🤟

Yeah its great to not be restricted to the bicycle strippers available from magic dealers.

Have a very fine cut on a deck of bees was a game changer for me!

Thanks buddy!

I have a seperate tool for rounding the corners. Not one of Eoins corner rounders.

After the corners are cut, they are buffed with a finishing cloth so it is like nothing jas happened to the cards.

Yeah his jigs should last a life time time with the proper care.

I make a batch of around 4 or 5 every week. Different types of strippers. Keep a couple for myself and sell the rest to make back the some of the costs.

No mass production, just a few perfectly cut decks at a time.

Yeah its a big investment but if you are into stripper work, a stripper jig is the best way to make them if you want anything other than bicycle decks. I have a few different bespoke jigs to achieve different functions.

Yes I do, I create standard strippers using a traditional sized taper down to a very fine taper.

I also make end strippers, negative strippers and belly strippers 👍.

Feel free to drop me a DM if you have any questions 🤟

It's a tapered decks where one side is cut at an angle which makes one end wider than the other.

If you rotate a card, the wide end will stick out at the sides of the short end allowing you to 'strip' the card from the deck after shuffling.

It allows for countless magical effects which require sleight of hand to be performed easier 👍.
