How to Make Wooden Dice 

Burning them would have been a great idea!

I'm glad it was helpful!

Thanks Steven. Bigger ones are so much fun.

+cooldude23407 Alas, I did not. If I were to do these again I wouldn't even drill holes at all actually. I've learned that a better method would be to burn in small indented divots. Thanks for commenting!

Thanks buddy!

Thanks Tim! I miss those old (and dangerous) lawn dart games though!

Ha, you know it!

Did you finish this?

Go for it!

Thanks Matthew! I was able to fix that climbing problem after this video. It was happening in part because my faceplate wasn't properly flush with the top of the saw, and also my push sticks were too short.

+Mathias Hoyt Ha! You're going to love the kale in the garden this year, aren't you?

Hi Koji, thanks for the comment! At the moment I'm not taking any orders, however I may be opening an Etsy site in September to sell a few products for Christmas. Dice would make a great stocking-stuffer! Be sure to catch my Tuesday vlogs in particular in September for any announcement of an online store. Thanks!

Will do. Your channel seems interesting so ill look into subscribing if i like the rest

I would make you some if you want

That sounds cool. In that cased, I would recommend holding the antler pieces in a vice grip and then using a drill press. Have fun making those!

Thanks! I will!

On second 00:18 he says walnut and maple

I mean, you're not wrong...

Indeed! About seven months after this video was published I finally fixed my major mic issues. Thanks for watching!

For you other readers:. Invest the money, get an overhead blade guard w removeable splitter if you don't like removing the blade guard for jigs. And if you're using a jig like a crosscut sled try to put safety guards (lexan/back blade blocks etc) on them. And PLEASE loose the long sleeves and jewelry while you're using power tools. Using the stop on the right side of the blade, just like using a fence with a miter gauge, face full of wood (or worst) waiting to happen. Guards are cheaper than a trip to the emergency room and prosthetics . Bear with an oldish timer for a story: Was in the Plano Texas Medical Center emergency room around 7:30 one night (on a non-woodworking related visit) about 17-18 years ago. A lady walks in carrying a tupperware container. She's running across the room, crying. Behind her a fella walks in half hunched over, white as a freaking sheet. His right hand was wrapped in a blood soaked towel, he was walking slowly, in a daze and almost stumbled and fell down. He was in pain and shock. Heard the wife (presumably) tell the nurse he had been using his tablesaw without the blade guard. Guess what was in the tupperware bowl: most of three fingers and half a thumb. Apparently, from what he was able to kinda say, the short wood piece he was ripping kicked back and shot off across the room; and (without the blade guard in place) his hand went forward right into the blade. As for the push stick, can't say much there. I use a leftover curly maple slat from my kid's crib I built decades ago. Its about 4" shorter now and the curly in it is highly polished from hand oils. STAY SAFE emphasis intended.

lol, yeah these early videos of mine are painful to watch at times.

Also since you drill material out for the dots not there is abhorrent balancing issue, well as corners being hand rounded that changes results as well. Cool decoration but not a dice really

no way man - I love these push sticks. they've always worked great for me. thanks though.
