Nut Production…

Ever since I was a teenager I’ve been fascinated Don Alan doing his giant nut production. What’s cool about a giant nut, is that it’s a simple object, there’s not much to it. It’s basically a big chunk of metal that you make appear.

I’ve got an idea for the routine that I will do. It’s going to be a transposition of different colored metal nuts from under a hat.

We’ll see if that works out, but it’s my idea for now.
