Crystal Dice Set for Tabletop by Billie Ruben <3

thingiverse

You might remember these custom dice from Reddit, where I shared them earlier on /r/DnD and /r/3Dprinting. They have their numbers now! I was inspired by real-life crystals and ancient long dice used by cultures like the Chinese, Egyptians, and Incas. I designed these models to be blanks that can eventually be cast in resin, giving them a crystal-like appearance. You can see my experiments in the image album. Although I still want to make some improvements, I decided to release them in their current state for anyone who wants them now. These dice are mathematically fair, with each side having the same probability of being landed on, and I've balanced out the numbers so they're evenly distributed around the roll. However, your printer settings and how well you're dialed in may affect fairness. To test fairness, float these prints in water; if a face repeatedly comes up, your dice isn't fair and you may need to adjust your printer. These dice are designed to be rolled from one's palm off their fingers onto a surface. They roll really well (even the smallest dice has the same angles as a normal D6). If printing in FDM: * Print the D4, 6, or 8 with 0% infill and use them as-is. * Use the split D10 to eliminate support; however, this D10 will always be unfair if printing in FDM due to the split-up model and subsequent weight differences between the points. I highly recommend casting these dice in resin if you wish to use them after printing in FDM. If printing in Resin: * You should be fine to print all of these dice as is (use the whole D10, not split). * And they should be fair straight from your printer (after removing support). If you like these dice, please consider sending me a tip. Also, if you print them, please post a make; I love to see other people's creations! Best regards, Billie
