Crystal Cleaver question

Post by BobD » Sat Feb 01, 2014 9:54 pm

Does anybody know how to perform Crystal Cleaver repeatedly? In the Hot Tips section of the Tenyo Magic Official Site there is an explanation of how to do it. The first illustration is blank on my computer and I cannot do it by following the instructions provided.

I tried this on my Tenyo Crystal Cleaver and it did not work for me either. However when i tried it on my Magic Works version it worked perfectly. The mechanism is triggered without being locked and it can be repeated again and again.
I'm not sure why as the two versions look identical. The Tenyo version I have is the original one that came on a card. Perhaps in later versions Tenyo made it so that it is easier to trigger the mechanism?

I have tried it with my 20 year old Magic Works version but it never worked. Today I opened my Japanese version and it still do not work.

This is the same for me. My Magic Works version can be triggered without locking if you press very lightly.

I wrote how I repeat my Tenyo Crystal Cleaver in the Members Only Sections.

The illustration has been missing for some time.

All it showed was to turn the cover 45°

My performing version of Crystal Cleaver came on the card too so I am not sure why you guys are having problems repeating the trick.
