“Ray is an absolute pro. Not only is his work flawless but he’s a joy to work with. Honest, fair, and extremely creative- I have had nothing but the best experience with him on all of the props he’s made for me.”

“Ray Lum is the world's premier illusion builder because he thinks "outside the box." He will not settle for good enough. Ray exceeds expectations because of his expertise and desire to understand the clients on an individual level.”

“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.”
