&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Locking Control Reel&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have many models of Reels in our range, each suitable for a particular type of action.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have now produced a Locking Control Reel. This is similar to the control reel but is fitted with a locking mechanism which allows you to stop it at any point with out having to hold on to it. The Control reel is ideal for slow motion animation effects. A classic example of this is the Serpentine Silk effect, where a knot is tied in a large handkerchief, and the knot visibly unties, making for one of the most effective pieces of visual magic ever conceived.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Locking feature permits you to set this up in advance, for your effects.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Locking Control Reel is made of brass, painted flesh color, and comes to you with instructions for use, along with the presentation for the routine above.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
