Hidden phones have been more and more important in the field of magic. There are several electronic impression devices, portable printers and watches that are controlled by phones or send information to your phone. With these methods there is also a need for an invisible way to peek and use the phone. The MetalWriting Sketch Pad is an answer to that need. It hides your phone but it also gives you access to the information during your performance. It has a three-way page system so you can either open it to an empty side for you to write on, open it to a pre-written page or open it to get access to your phone. Besides this there are two inserts that you can add or remove that will add extra features to the device. One is suited for MetalWriting and the other for peeking while you are writing on the pad.

With the sketch Pad you can perform picture duplication’s, revealing names and information from an impression device, set your electronic SB watch or Pitata watch, read information from a scale, send information to a printer AND engrave your MetalWriting. Imagine to both have access to a secretly written name and the ability to instantly engrave it on an object. This feature opens up a new door in the MetalWriting range and it is a big leap forward for emotional mentalism. Besides this there is yet another feature. You can use the pad as a device for Q&A without your phone. The secret compartment and the inserts will give you a perfect way to handle billets and to peek the information.

This is a must have tool for the MetalWriting pocket watch and Electricks SB watch combo – The Marriage. When buying a combo set from me, I include the Sketch Pad. Why? Because I think it is essential for a smooth and natural handling for the routines. With the same tool you both program the SB watch and engrave the Pocket Watch. But the best part is that the process is hidden from the audience. Thanks to the page flapping system you are one ahead and the secret writing is justified and goes over their head.
I would like to share a story from Magic Live 2024. I was demonstrating the Pocket Watch marriage to a customer that owned the SB watch. He knew the methods. Still after the demonstration he asked me: “How did you set the time on the watch; did you use voice recognition? I didn’t see it”. I sat the time right in front of him, with the Sketch Pad.
The Sketch Pad includes:
The Pad itself
One insert for MetalWriting
One insert for instant peeking of information
Refill sheets, material and instructions for how to easy make your own refills (no need to order paper from me)
Instructions and material to secure your phone in the pad.
