Full Deck Crimp
Using the Breather Jig is easy!
Simply place a poker size playing card face-up between the Upper & Base Plates aligning the sides of the card with the sides of Base Plate and the inserted end of the card is lying along the internal Mylar Fence. With the jig in your hands, press down with both thumbs on the jig Lever until it is stopped by the Depth Stop contacting the top of the Upper Plate.
Count to three,release the Lever and remove the playing card. This results in a Breather Crimp towards one end of the playing card.

Adjustable Depth Stop
Almost invisible
Look closely! A shallow bump or bulge can be seen towards one end of the card. That's an offset breather crimp! This is an internal crimp so the card edges are not affected.(Remember you can adjust the strength of the breather)
Each card, with a breather crimp towards one end, nests one on top of each other. Any card turned end to end in the deck will form a small break, allowing the magi to cut to it, or, because there is now less friction, to simply give the deck a sharp tap, causing the deck to separate at the desired card or cards.

Just want to tell you how pleased I enjoy playing with the jigs... the whole idea is that they are so well conceived, it is a real joy to put them at work...
I remember the good old times, when I was buying from Ken Brooke some of his bird cage pulls... inspired from the "Martin's ones"... Your tool for the Breather has exactly the same feeling, in my hands, and you produce tools that any magician sould be proud and happy to work with...
I have done "breathers" for years, just by hand... but the new possibilities are really great... thanks for that..
Bravo!!! and continue with so high profile instruments...
