Dice Making

[Clam-I-Am]

I know I started a little thread about getting into this hobby on the old MCB, but the site died before I could give a real update.

I ended up starting with a single d20 mold from Werpy Dice on etsy, and I've currently made about 45 d20s with it, but I just recently got everything together and made my own mold for a full custom set. I just thought I'd make a thread here and post sets as I make them for anyone interested in some cool dice. So far I've only made a couple sets, but I'm trying to make them fairly often so it shouldn't be too empty unless I forget about it for a bit.

Also, if anyone is interested in getting into this hobby, I can help out or get you an invite to a really helpful discord server for this community.

Yesterday's pull.

[DavidBoren]

I want a set of these!

[Clam-I-Am]

I can try to make another one! The d6 on this one has a void, but I love how they came out.

I want to eat them and it taste like bubble gum.

Today's pull.

ooooh - those are gorgeous! Is that an epoxy that you are using to make them?

[Nish]

Those are AWESOME!

Yup! I'm currently using KSResin for my dice, but I used Art n Glow before. I currently have an assortment of alcohol inks, mica powders, pigment powders, metal leafs, and acrylic paints for all the colors and inclusions as well.

Can't get any good outside pictures because of the smoke, but I have a couple simpler sets today. (I'll get to some cooler stuff soon )

Just made with Black 1.0 pigment powder from Culture Hustle:


And one with Black 1.0 and two interference powders, blue and purple:


Still need to do some finishing work on both, but I have a petri attempt curing that should be cool if it works out.

Oh man, those black ones are beautiful. I really like the font too

I ended up picking the font because I really like the 8, and it ended up working out really well for the full set.

[Clam-I-Am]

Petri attempt didn't work as well as I was hoping, but it still looks cool.

[Nish]

Oh I really like that one.

That is an interesting shape for a 4 sided.

[Clam-I-Am]

That is an interesting shape for a 4 sided.

I really like the crystal d4 style. It looks pretty cool, and it's less of a health hazard if you drop one than the pyramid d4s.

[Nish]

Just say no to caltrop dice

[Clam-I-Am]

Wasn't what I was hoping for, but it isn't a terrible set. My purple ink likes to turn brown.

[Clam-I-Am]

Much better set today with a successful petri attempt.
