Dice
Why would I spend so much on handmade dice when I could get a cheap set of RPG dice anywhere?
It’s true, there are tons of cheap sets out there. I’ve bought many myself. So why would you spend so much on artisan-crafted handmade dice? Because they are beautiful, custom made, and totally unique.
The process of making dice by hand is actually incredibly labor, material, and cost intensive. From 3D designing a set of master dice, ordering a 3D print of them, creating silicone molds of those masters, having all materials on hand (resin, dyes, inclusions, paints, etc.) to pour the dice, sanding and polishing, painting, photographing, and listing the dice? It’s a ton of work. The prices reflect all of the hours that go into a single set of dice making them as perfect as possible for your next game.
Are your dice balanced?
You might be surprised to learn, as I was, that no commercially produced RPG dice are actually balanced (as in casino-grade balanced). Due to the manufacturing process, materials, and other factors, no handmade dice are going to be perfectly balanced in the clinical sense, but dice-makers do everything they can to ensure that they are all fair and playable. All dice for sale are usable in tabletop gaming.
What are your dice made out of?
Epoxy resin, glitter, dyes and pigments, various inclusions (such as dried flowers, mylar flakes, and the like), and acrylic paint for the numbers.
Astro Dice
What is included in the astro dice set?
Two astronomical D12s: (including Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto, and Chiron)
One astrology D12
One aspects D12: (including conjunction, sextile, semi-sextile, square, semi-square, trine, quintile, bi-quintile, quincux, sesqui-quadrate, opposition, and VC)
One moon phases D8
One numerical houses D12
One direct/retrograde coin
Why does this set include X but not Y/Why doesn’t this set include XYZ??
Due to the constraints of the medium (D12) I had to choose what to include and what to leave out. Astrology is incredibly complex and there are undoubtedly so many astronomical bodies and aspects that did not and could not be included.
How can you use this set?
This set was designed to be used for astronomical divination. There are two astronomical dice so you can use the two planets with an aspect to get, say, Mercury Trine Pluto, or you can roll the traditional Astronomy + Houses + Astrology to get, for instance, Venus in Aries in the 7th house. The direct/retrograde coin can be used to see if the energy of what you are inquiring about is direct or retrograde. However you use astrology to gain wisdom and insight, you can use these dice.
Orgone
What is orgone/orgonite and what do you do with it?
Orgone (although it is commonly known as its trade-name orgonite) consists of resin, a quartz point, and metal shavings. It can also include crystals, herbs, symbols, or other additional ingredients based on your needs and intention. It is an etheric tool, cleansing, purifying, and amplifying the energy of whatever is inside it.
You can use orgonite to cleanse a space or you can create it for a specific purpose such as dream-work, healing, chakra opening, and so on. Orgonite is beautiful as well as versatile. It does not need cleansing and its energetic presence has a continuous effect. Some believe it reduces the presence of EMF influence and negative energy in the atmosphere.
You can hold it, have it under your pillow, place it on your nightstand or in your meditation space, and so on. Some feel the effects of orgone very strongly. The closer the contact, the stronger the effect, so your mileage may vary.
How do you make orgone?
Check out my tutorial here.
Where do you get your materials?
I get crystals from all over the western United States, from gem shows and rock stores (including the Tucson gem show which is local for me!). Metal shavings come from machine shops and online.
Dice making
I’m not in the US, do you have any good product recommendations for me?
Since I’m US based, I am only familiar with US suppliers, unfortunately. The facebook group Dice Making Discoveries is a great resource to explore supplies in other countries and I’d highly recommend joining if you’re able.
Should I get a pressure pot or a vacuum chamber? Do I NEED either?
What should I expect if I want to get into dice making?
That your first sets will probably not come out how you had hoped; that each pour is a learning experience; that you will put a lot of time, money, and work into creating professional level dice; and that it is incredibly fun and rewarding.

How do you sand/polish your dice?
I sand with 1000 grit sandpaper and then polish with Zona polishing papers. Currently I’m using a mini pottery wheel (I added a 6 inch plexiglass round to have more polishing space + flat surface, and you can choose different sizes) that I can’t recommend enough.
