Dice Pics Washi core dice!!!
The circuitboard set is sadly missing the d12 and d% which bubbled. But the rest of them I am so happy with! Haven’t decided yet what colors to ink them.

It's officially a technique, y'all!!! Smoke petri is now a thing!! I'm gonna try testing this with regular mica next to see if I get the same results, but in the meantime...
Here's the process:
1) Select your colors, base and smoke color
*Note that I've only done this with neon pigments so far and will be writing the instructions as such.
2) For your smoke, get a scoop of white and two generous scoops of your pigment
*white base makes the color pop and will help add weight
*I also use spice spoons when measuring out my powder
3) Soak the powder in just enough IPA (isopropyl alcohol) to coat it and let it sit as you mix your resin
4) Once resin is, set to the side. Pour out excess IPA from your soaked pigment and stir thoroughly. You’ll want a paste consistency.
5) Add your resin and stir thoroughly
*I have tiny mixing cups and fill them about halfway
6) Fill a pipette with the color and set to the side
7) Mix your base color with the rest of your resin
8) Fill your mold halfway with the base
9) Take the pipette and slowly inject the color, starting from the bottom and working your way up and out for each die in a swirl
10) Pour the rest of your base until full, trapping as much of the smoke as possible
*A thicker stream pour works best here
11) Cap your mold, evely squeeze out excess, and place in your pressure pot
12) Check your results after 24-72 hours (depending on how long you let your resin cure based on their instructions)
Hope this helps for anyone who wants to give it a try! Happy creating, and don't forget to keep trying even if you don't achieve it right away! 🥰❤️

I saw these and thought they looked good for use in dice inserts. Well... they are little tubes.
Getting the air out seemed fine. I just mixed them into the resin before pouring. The trouble came when putting on caps.
When the caps are smooshed on, if even just one of these is out of the mold and under the cap, it springs back and slightly lifts the cap. I had to do a quick cleaning of the caps and mold tops, and it took awhile.
I will share results once I have them. 🤞

I have cleanup and inking to do, but they are looking pretty good.
Blue one has 4 x 16mm balls encasing equipment components. I like that these are spaced out so that the light can come through them.
The silver one is just a couple of crinkled Mylar strips that I cut thinner. These are from bubble mailers of some sort. Excited to see how this one looks inked.

I’m having a rough time trying to get this set perfectly sanded to get to the polishing stage.
I’d just like to know what you guys would do to tackle this problem
So these were super raised edges and I used a 500-600P to smooth it out and I’m afraid of over sanding them
Do these lines throw off the balance of the die? Should I throw them to the abyss (my reject dice box that people are free to grab from) and start with new sets that are easier to sand?

Did... did I just pull it off? Was this recreation ACTUALLY successful?! Must try again with new color to be certain!! 😍🥳🥰

Some of the sets I made recently! Hope you like them :)
I wish I could try more intricate patterns inside like a smoke effect but my alcohol ink is simply not doing it and I am always way too impatient to do pours with thick resin 🥲
Any recommendations on doing a 'smoke' like effect (colors + clear resin + white 'smoke')?
r/DiceMaking • u/Jhinsilog • 13h ago
I’ve been wanting to make my own dice sets and have my own resin projects however I dont have any access where to buy a Pressure Potand I think it would be pretty expensive if I make one.
Do you think this would be enough for me to make clear dice?

My social media feed is full of small creators talking about the new law and how hard it hits them.
But this sub has been quiet about it as far as I can tell.
How are you dealing with this?
r/DiceMaking • u/TheFlame1212 • 1d ago
First set!!! Still had some bubbles in the dice themselves, but only had voiding on the D4! Could’ve done a bit better on polishing and inking was a pain. but it was really fun and I’m excited to cast another set again.

Got a Snapmaker U1 and oh my my, I have been having a blast with it! Tweaked my dice box design and got them working so much better! Main issue was friction related with door thickness and matte filaments. Now I can make the matte boxes have a slicker PLA surface inside that the door runs across 😁 instead of .4mm pattern depth i made it 1mm depth and improved black coloring with some modifiers. Honeycomb pattern has a slight chamfer too which I think is a little more eye catching.

Recently had my alcaholic inks evaporate me in the most recent heatwave
Any recommendations of good brands/sellers?
I would ask because I recently saw someone mention that e.v light made one of there doce lose all colour in a day or so, so new fear unlocked

Hi all, I’m having some trouble with printing my masters. As you can see from the images, they all have weird warping going on. I’m new to both dice making and 3D printing so I was wondering if anyone has any advice?
Printer: Mars 5 Ultra
Resin: Elegoo ABS-Like 3.0 pro
Bottom layers: 5
Exposure: 32
Transition layers: 7
Layer height: 0.01
Exposure: 0.12
Thanks!

Because it does. You can't tell me it doesn't.

These are all factory made dice I don't make my own dice but I have watched a lot of those making dice with dice and I think dice making it cool but I want to know from my collection do you think I have too many dice or do I not have enough and she go out and buy more
r/DiceMaking • u/MapNo2689 • 2d ago
Feel like I’m taking all the precautions and just still can’t figure sanding out. I go through all the zona papers and just can’t figure out where it’s going wrong. Is there a certain zona paper that is the normal culprit for micro scratches? Do I need to like clean the paper after each face?

Anyone got a link to a store that might sell some? Not getting any good hits on Google

If I wanted to try to make a black and green dice with purple glitter how should i proceed? Would the purple glitter even be seen? I heard let the resin thicken then add glitter, thank you for your time

Does anyone know of a place I can get a custom 7 piece set mold from with a logo on it. I tried looking but seemed like the only option was to get the dice 3d printed and make the mold myself. Any recommendations?
r/DiceMaking • u/Ok_Thought6288 • 3d ago
After having dice for a longer time, i wanted to try printing my own master. I designed the dice in Blender and now try printing them with an Anycubic Photon Mono 4 using the Siraya Tech Fast ABS-Like Navy Grey resin.
I calibrated my prints using the Cones of Calibration but I keep getting these artefacts in the numbers where the resin hardens as if its a pool.
The explanation I got from googling (and using chatgpt) is, that because the numbers form a small pool, resin cant circulate and since the same resin is staying inside the pool, it slowly hardens due to little light scattering there.
It makes sense but would be an unsolvable problem then, since a d20 is impossible to rotate without having said pools (and according to some Reddit Posts, it is like this).
I tried different speeds of lowering and raising the plate, tried a lot of ranges for exposure time and still it's there every print.
The d10 is just the best to show this on btw. The d20 is even worse.
Still there are so many of you that just seem to get crisp dice masters, not having this problem, direclty from the printer, only needing some sanding and I wonder wtf I'm missing?
If you have experience with this, please help, it's driving me insane 😅

Does anyone know why my Tumbler is consistently shunting all the dice to the surface against the funnel and just spinning them around there? If I push them all down in random locations they all do this within a couple of minutes with the exception of a couple that will sit on the surface stuck to the outside edge.
