Practical effects resources

[Seriphu]

Hey guys,

I see a lot of posts referring to doing on set effects, I was wondering if anyone knew of a good online resource for creating wire rigs and air compression setups. We have a few shots lined up from our creative that I can see being done easily with practical effects. Simple things falling over and papers flying all over the place, stuff of that nature.

If anyone has expertise in this area or knows of a good place to research I would greatly appreciate it. http://tinyurl.com/cs2m7j (a classic) demonstrates the type of effects, but I need it on a smaller more local scale.

Cheers
