20 Sided Dice

It's no secret among my friends that I like to game when I have the time.

That means I have to have my own set of dice!

I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to continue exploring the functionality of Fusion360. The 20d model ended up being a fair bit trickier than anticipated, and involved a lot of trial and error with the pattern tool. In the end it worked out, and now I have my very own hand crafted 3d model of a 20d.

I printed one version of the model on the Form2 at the maker space in the durable material, but decided I wanted something heftier. I had some credit on my Shapeways account and decided to shell out the big credits to print the 20d in steel! I think it turned out great, and the added heft feels great in hand.

My next step is to print a mold to fit around the metal part so I can pour clear resin in the void in the middle to add numbers... I have high hopes for how it will turn out.
