7 years ago I was inspired by Copperfield's beautiful and elegant ace assembly routine. It was the trick that made me stand up and declare that I would become a magician. I then set out to learn that very ace assembly. After 1 year of researching and learning magic, I was performing Copperfield's version of it - exactly. After a while, I sat down and thought about how morally incorrect it was of me to copy Copperfield's routine. Where was the originality? So, with inspiration from his routine, I set out to create my own ace assembly routine. I wanted to create a routine that carried the dramatic weight that Copperfield's had. The creation of this effect took slightly more than 2 years. Pretty long for a card trick ;) But this is the product of many hours of brain storming and practicing. I dedicate this to my grand aunty, Amati Nur, my biggest fan :) I know it's not as great as Copperfield's, nor was it intended to be, but at least it's original and it's mine :) I sincerely hope that I've achieved what I set out to do. And I sincerely hope that I will inspire people; like how Copperfield inspired me all those years ago.
