8-sided D4 Die, Numbers 1-4 Repeated Twice

thingiverse

This is a model for a D4 die that physically has 8 sides. Normal 4-sided dice are pyramids which don't really roll in a satisfying way when you throw them across a table. My friend Dave had an idea: what about making a die that had 8 sides and repeated the numbers 1 through 4 twice? That would still give you a number up to 4, but in a shape that was easier to roll. I printed it primarily with PLA infused with fibers, giving it the look and feel of wood. It can also be worked like wood (e.g., sanded) for a nicer finish.
