I made <a href="http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh73/Malcadon/Other/ZowieDie-AllSides.jpg" rel="nofollow">one</a> about a year ago, but I was only able to get one GS d8 (the only way I can make them, is with smooth sides for label stickers), as they are hand to find in my area. Is always nice to see others making their own! =DMalcadonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03111796978336546944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-54247546174940213832011-06-27T06:09:15.312-05:002011-06-27T06:09:15.312-05:00@Anonymous, they are fair dice, it a combination o...@Anonymous, they are fair dice, it a combination of shape, weight, and balance it to get it to work. I couldn't believe it myself either but I rolled my d5 a 100 times and it seems to be a fair dice.Robert Conleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03863009007381185340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-67120107883788928372011-06-26T19:11:19.902-05:002011-06-26T19:11:19.902-05:00I do not trust D5s or D7s.

(Kent)<br /><br />I'll second this.<br /><br />Try inking them with a precision Sharpie before using a white-out pen (after waiting for the ink to dry.) This creates very good contrast in transparent dice.FASERIPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858463803195240463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-36167305718897638712011-06-26T12:58:11.822-05:002011-06-26T12:58:11.822-05:00Nicely done.

You're a smart guy. What is the point of the non-standard dice, as in why construct tables in the first place that require them?<br /><br />You have to use white paint for the crystal dice and they show up brightly. The trick is not to rely on wiping, become more proficient at managing the paint flow.<br /><br />Check out these dice. I bought four of them. I have made mathematics fundamental to Magic-Use in my game and these will be used heavily by MUs.<br /><br />http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glyphobet/mathematicians-diceKenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165997449776226774noreply@blogger.com
