Hello! In the past I have tested the balance of some of my dice by dropping them into either water with salt dissolved into it, or water with a lot of sugar dissolved into it. Since these dice may not be perfectly balanced, it might be cool to test their balance on a stream or second video (or just post a quick video on social media)! Note that since these dice may be heavier, it could be difficult to dissolve enough of salt or sugar into the water to make them float. QQA! 😁

I think a much easier solution to get the LEDs aligned would be to just 3D print a jig of a mock d20 or whatever die you wanted, but with LED sized holes cut out in each face, with a small void in the middle. Then, you could just put a dab of hot glue on each LED, push it in, open up the jig, and you'd have a neat little ball you could put into your die mold!

@@jlammetje you would have to place a larger amount of weight into an edge or corner for it to tip the dice. the most common way of making a weighted dice isnt actually weight but sanding an area to make it angled, this causes the dice to tip. due to their overall size and how the resin distributes weight internal changes arn't going to be a big factor as long as Evan sanded those edges well
@DreadKyller
@DreadKyller Жыл бұрын
@@jlammetje For the weight to have a really noticeable effect on the rolls the weight distribution needs to be pretty significant. Even if this is far off you're talking about a bias towards one side of the face less than a percent off. For competitions maybe, but for casual play, it's barely going to have an effect. As FiveSod said, you'd need to put a decent amount of additional weight fairly close to a face to drastically change the outcome. The LEDs and the acrylic cubes are likely quite close to the same weight as the resin, and are still fairly centered, so it's unlike it'll make much of a practical difference, especially for throwing from a low height where there's less time in the air.

Oh my gosh Katelyn I FEEL you with the word "opacity"!! I've said it wrong my whole life (since I saw it first in Photoshop at a young age and never heard it aloud), and it's perfectly reasonable to want to say it the with a long "a" sound, but recently I learned the actual linguistic reason it's said the way it is. The principle is called "Tri-Syllabic Laxing," where a word's pronunciation differs from its root when there are three or more syllables (that's an oversimplification, but my knowledge is pretty superficial). The easiest way to understand it is with extant words that use tri-syllabic laxing: "Wild" and "Wilderness" | "Divine" and "Divinity" | "Opaque" and "Opacity" I hope this gives you the confidence it gave me! I couldn't stand changing my pronunciation without knowing the reason why, and I still slip up all the time, but I honestly encourage and admire the effort to correct yourself and get unstuck from old habits. It's a quality life skill. That being said: English is jank, linguistics is fluid, and it's good to be kind to yourself and others about how we navigate language

The final set ended up looking so cool! Just circling back to your original insert attempt; when making dice with Mylar/cellophane, we typically recommend dipping the Mylar in the resin first before putting it into the mould. Putting it in as-is tends to introduce and trap a bunch more air bubbles than you would if the Mylar were already wet.

This makes me want to put an Arduino controlling the power source in the box to make the dice flash. It would be cool to have it light up differently when a 20 is rolled. Perhaps machine vision to detect the face that is up but maybe there are other ways of sensing the orientation of the dice. The box makes a nice platform for exploring other functionality.

I made my own leather dice tray... adding a copper coil along the bottom and covering it with another layer to hide it wouldn't be too bad at all! You guys are adorable! You can paint the numbers with fingernail polish and wait about 5 seconds and wipe it and the numbers remain filled. (oh wait you did it lol) Last edit to my comment; I have Raycon Work Earbuds. I love them so much. The right ear bud controls normal, noise cancel or awareness mode and the left changes the tuning like classic or rock. A double tap on either pauses the sound/video and three taps changes the song ahead or back depending on left or right. The case recharges them between uses and the case recharges on the same cable as my phone. I highly recommend the brand.
