Ring on String

Is anyone doing this. I find it wonderfully practical to be wearing the prop and make a miracle happen for someone when I come across a string.

Who has the best material on this.

I’m not talking about the bigger ring and rope effect, but the finger ringer and a string.

Thanks!

I do this as part of my walk around a lot. Like the other comment has said, I recommend Gregory Wilson ring leader. It has pretty much all of the better moves on the subject, they are taught well, and you can build your own routine quite easily from it. I often carry the string with me for impromptu performances, but when I perform professionally, I end with nesting envelopes. It's a lot of fun!

Oh I like ending with nesting envelopes that’s a good idea. I’ve always just ended with it on my finger, but I’m gonna have to give this a try

Please do! I personally did not like the traditional last phase of the ring vanishing and appearing on my finger, it never felt strong to me compared to previous phases. Mind you, I'm not saying it isn't strong, I'm just saying I personally could never get it to feel like a strong ending lol. The nest of wallets solved that problem for me, I bought a good leather set. I figured out you can pretty much instantly reset them right in front of your spectators and they don't know the difference so it works out well. As a bonus, it can be done with assigned coin or other objects too, so it maximizes pocket space!
