 | Define the word “Quality”. I dare you. Most people can’t. Not because they are stupid, but because they are ignorant of the meaning. They should be. In a world where the bottom line and mass-production are everything, quality is not likely to be found. People just don’t see quality anymore and hence, have forgotten it’s meaning. The same can be said true, unfortunately, in the world of magic. The bottom line and mass-production have become the primary focus of many manufacturers of magical apparatus. It is rare these days to find a diamond amongst so many zircons. I am proud to note an exception to the rule when I say I am proud to endorse Ray Lum’s Ultimate Ring in Gumball Machine. Or, as I have always fondly called it, The LumBall Machine. I could not be more proud to own such a quality piece of magical apparatus. I have performed the effect countless times on television and video and use it to close all my performances. Further, I will boldly state (and I speak for many others) that if I had a choice of performing only ONE effect for the duration of my performaces, I would choose, hands-down, The LumBall Machine effect! The precision care and detail that go into building the machine can only enhance the amazing effect it produces. Ray, like myself, is picky and knows quality when he sees it! He handcrafts each machine to his exact standards and tests each unit to make sure it holds up during performance after performance. Ray puts his name on each unit and proudly stands behind every machine. Now there’s something you don’t see every day. Posted By: Mike Giusti - Comedy Magician |
 | Saying Ray is a prop builder is like saying Michelangelo does a bit of painting and decorating. I love every piece he’s made for me, and they’ve never let me down. Which is more than I can say for the dog. Also, he built an Ironman suit, which lights up and shit. So that’s pretty cool. He may be pricey, but you’re paying for the best and anyone who thinks he’s too expensive doesn’t understand how much Ironman suits cost.

 | I’m old school, which means I truly appreciate Ray’s attention to detail and unmatched commitment to quality. I recently worked with Ray on a very challenging project: a build-from-scratch, classic Fire Spiker. The finished prop is simply stunning. I was inspired by Ray's meticulous craftsmanship, and quite frankly, obsession with getting it right. Ray exceeded my expectations in every department. Skilled, timely and gracious throughout, he is clearly driven to deliver 110%. Posted By: The Legendary Mark Kalin - Worlds Top Illusionist |
