Dice Questions?

What are peoples thoughts on 3D Printed dice?

They are becoming works of art ... (see the Kraken die above)

I love the look of the LittleCLUUs dice but I couldn't justify the cost, hope I get a chance to pick some up at a later date.

They are really nice ... I hope we can keep Christina (LittleCluus) in business for a long time ... so you may be in luck and be able to pick them up later

Indeed they are! How would you feel about being able to customise and print your own dice though? similar to how Hero forge has the modular character system but for dice (and then possibly characters as-well) ?

Well .. that is what the Kraken die is .. Custom printed by Shapeways ... so that means more dice for me

Have you seen these magnetic dice? I don't think they'd make good dice for actual random numbers, but they are cool.

What is so cool about the AKO DICE II?

Wow that's an awesome collection kevin. I thought I was high rolling in Jr high school cause I had a wine bag full of dice. Now I have too many dice to even keep up with haha funny how those little things can multiply.

I've been thinking about getting a 3d printer to print dice and minis for my FLGS I'm just not sure if I'm ready to take the plunge yet.

It all depends on how you look at it ... I just dont have dice just like them ... so I am backing the project

You are going to need to spend a good bit as low cost printers are too low resolution for mini's .. and will make dice look very bad on the top and bottom ... I think you have to have the layers less than 20mu ... and the lower cost ones are more like 75mu - 120mu
