Alastor But With a Gun he made an infinity stone dice set and of course to obtain the soul stone you have to sacrifice that which you love most. So he started an arc about how he sacrificed his wife to be able to make his soul stone die and this was the end of it.
As corny of a joke as that wish spell was, I love it! Feel free to include your wife in on any future skits like that. It was actually well worth the wait :-)
I'm guessing with how well he gets the air out it should be pretty fair. Even with a little air I'd think because that little bit is free to move it shouldn't really effect how random it is (at least that's my theory lol)
@@Rybonator Hey, Seriously Creative does resin shakers and she uses a little piece of clear plastic to cap her holes, so the resin can seal on the first go. You may want to take a peek, she seems to have a method down pat.
Hey there! Quick question - for the glycerin thing would it be the food grade kind from the grocery store? Also would it be instead of water or in addition to the water? Im really looking to try this out!!!!
@@Rybonator It may alter the balance of the dice a tiny bit though, so experiment with different ratios of oil and water and test the dice extensively if you're gonna do it.
@@Rybonator you could always start with a 1 inch cube and melt it down lol. I was thinking it could help you close your sphere and get a good closer without any bubbles.
It is a great feeling making something yourself. The feeling of accomplishment when you have worked out all the flaws through trial and error. To be able to sit back and look at the finished product. I love that feeling. I am glad you show the flaws as well. Even the mistakes look good, they have their own character.
I'm a mama running on fumes lately - suddenly I have restless legs at night and can't sleep.... your videos are very informative but also soothing and very relaxing for me. This is a hobby I want to get into and I'm enjoying my late night binge sessions
Yay! You have your wife back! As I was watching this, I was thinking that it would be cool to maybe get some leag-shaped confetti to put in the sphere for an autumn-themed die.
so I'm obsessed with anything clear. glass sculptures, jewelry, decorations, you name it, because when i was a kid my father would tell me that the clear buttons of my cardigan i absolutely loved were filled with water, but i couldn't see it swirl because they were completely filled up. since then seeing swirly, moving stuff in clear objects has been my most favorite thing and I don't think you have any idea how pleased I am to see your dice. I've seen this video and unhealthy amount of times and I'll never stop 😅
These look so amazing! Also this might sound a bit wild, but a good tip for getting a good cover with the uv resin is to freeze the ball after you fill it with glitter and water. This will give you a solid base to cure the resin on so it doesn’t fall in and the result will be the same after the water melts. This is also useful for a project similar to this on a bigger scale.
Water expands when freezing, sure. But that doesn't necessarily mean it will expand enough to break the glass or anything. Given glass has some strength after all; it could likely withstand a very small amount of water expanding a very small amount. Could run the numbers and that wouls.give you a good guess as to if it can withstand it, if ya gonna try
As a long time fan of your making skills; I have been absolutely enjoying your entire dead wife bit and find this resolution to it to be perfect and totally deserving of such fantastic dice. I truly enjoy when makers have a little fun and tell some stories as they go. It's what makes me love both yours and Peter Brown's videos so much. A little reoccurring shtick makes it all that much more enjoyable to long time fans. Wife reveal was well worth the wait.
Honestly being compared to Peter Brown has made my day :) I love his videos and have been a long time fan. One of my goals would be to do a collaboration video with that awesome fella! Glad you like what I put out there :) I truly appreciate you taking the time to watch.
I’m not sure why I watched this, since I don’t plan on making dice. But I watched the whole thing because I was so fascinated. You explained it very well and I appreciate that you included where you went wrong.
*gasp* You did iiiit! Congrats! When my molds are done and I get some orbs and UV resin, I'm totally trying it out! Maybe try with different liquids and see where I can get. Edit: I made the molds differently, btw. I made a silicone base in a cup, waited for it to cure completely and then put more silicone and the die. When done I take it out and cut one of the sides carefully to not hurt the die and the top number! This way I can reuse the dice for molds AND don't need to go through the whole scraping process at the end (especially bc I don't have that much time and patience DX)
Glad you finally got your wife back, and that she isn't too mad about the whole sacrifice for some dice thing XD. Also that die is gorgeous! I love the how silver swirl is accented by the gold.
Thank you for taking the time to post these videos, I really appreciate you breaking things down and showing a process that includes mistakes instead of how some others do it with a flawless one try. Your dice are beautiful and your videos are great to watch.
as a fellow "pokemon silver and gold are the BEST" fan, I absolutely loved these! don't think I'll attempt making them though, otherwise I'd do nothing all day but shake and swirl them around. also congrats on the return of your wife! the payoff of the joke was well worth the wait :)
It has become a significant distraction for me now haha. Glad you like them fellow Gold/Silver nerd! :) Yeah it's nice to have her back. She's cool I guess :P
Hahahahaha! I LOVE that ending! So happy you got your wife back though, now you have extra hands to help you with all your cool crafts, these dice are AWESOME!
No kidding!? That's awesome :D You're going to love it. Just remember to have fun and lose yourself in the roleplay aspect of it. It's so much more fun when you can just lose yourself in the character :)
@@Rybonator yasss I'm so excited, going 2dm this game because none of my friends wanted to read the rules 😅 but I'm definitely going to try to encourage them to role-play I can't wait :))((
I've seen crafters use pieces of clear tape or clear sheet of plastic to cover the opening in resin shakers, maybe you could give that a try instead of letting it drip into the bulb and trying to cure it before too much of it falls in?
I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON A VIDEO SO FAST. Great job Ryan! This is actually the exact process I had in mind for these, so it's good to know it's not more complicated than I thought! I've also heard you can use isopropyl alcohol for the liquid too.
I was affraid of that evaporating before I could get it filled and leaving a bubble, but I've heard water + alcohol is a great combo for swirls :) Can't wait to see how you give it a shot!
Oh my gosh y'all are cute 😊 thank you for the laugh! The fails were very cool to see. The dice with the water bubbles reminded me of the eye dice where the iris stays up (but like, spider eyes I guess!) The gold die with the blue ink is seriously pinging my "unique dice are interesting" radar, haha! And of course the final result was amazing. Thank you for sharing everything with us!
Oh she's the cute one, I just borrow the cuteness haha. Glad you like seeing the fails too. I got a lot of em :P And yeah the uniqueness of them does make them kinda cool too :)
This is so cool! I'd love to see how it would look with a darker glitter/center and a very light but still colored resin on the outside (like your tesseract set with gold or dark blue glitter in the middle). It's so awesome of you to share this knowledge!
Anyone have a recommendation on where to buy these premade? I don’t have a set up for resin crafting and I’d like to get my fiancée some for Christmas. 😃
I really enjoy and appreciate how you show the screwups as well as the amazing finished product. Not all TH-camrs do that, especially on the woodworking/DIY channels. You earned a subscribe from me, good sir, and +1 CHA.
Finally! I have a 10 in CHA. Been operating at a -1 modifier for too dang long! I'm glad you like the mess-ups :) It's the best way to learn after all! Thanks for subbing :)
Maybe you could try a oil and coloured water mix. Dunno if it would look good but it might plus it will have a cool colour separation going on while it waits to be rolled.
These look great! I am making the potion bottles from the DMG and have been experimenting with all kinds of liquids and glitter, mica powders, etc. Have you tried using isopropyl alcohol instead of the water? I don't have the exact formula but I find alcohol and a touch of water makes that glitter swirl forever. Thanks for the great videos and tutorials!
I have not tried that! I'll have to give it a shot in the future. I was doing almost straight guess work on the liquid. You probably have a better idea than me :) Thank YOU for the tip!
I only use baby oil in a slower moving resin piece and usually only in the bigger pieces, so I'd use water in these smaller ones too. This is really cool, thank you!
For filling and capping the globes, you might try using a paper egg carton turned upside-down. If you push the bottom inward, it should create a nice cradle for the globe and then you can eliminate the risk of spilling stuff into your molds.
Rybonator Awesome! Can’t wait to see it. Great channel btw. Attempted your dice box for a Christmas gift as a Chess set. Thanks for the idea and tutorial!
I wonder if you could make your resin orb caps away from the orb first, on a surface they don't adhere to, basically just a little dot that you can place on the opening. You could place it over the opening then resin it into place. Might make that capping process easier?
That's not a bad idea! I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get the size right. I know that some people use clear silicone caulking to fill the hole which works well too, but you can see it a bit more.
Great job... I think adding those music notes in it and you got bard dice. Lol Have you thought of casting a ball then do slush casting so you can make them for any dice?
Dude! Dude! Duuuuuude! First they are so f-ing pwetty! 😍 Then: your favorite Pokémon Games are Gold and Silver? Now I love your channel even more! Maybe you could do dice with miniatures of each of the starters in them! ☺ Also: I'm glad the soul of your wife is finally free again :'D
@@Rybonator if you wanna be rlly mad you could try to sculpt them yourself with polymer clay or something similar xD But I can also understand that that would be a hell lot more work^^ I just hope you'll find fitting miniatures soon :D Also: your welcome :'D
I've seen this technique used to make water globe earrings if you freeze the water in the glitter first then you can easily cover the top with resin without having to cure it really fast so you can get a nice thin coverage and then you just let the ice melt
I think youre right, the silver with the gold numbers looks amazing, and that silvery swirling is dreamy !!! 10/10 again :) PS. Great that your wife is part of your "habit" haha...
I'm so happy I stumbled upon this channel! I was planning on making a wooden dice set for my brother for christmas, but this is also a very nice idea! Thanks!
@@Rybonator a lot of homemade snowglobe recipes have glycerin in the mix because it "thickens" the water, making the particles swirl and float longer before settling. should work out for a better effect.
Gosh, all of the dice you make are absolutely gorgeous! I only recently found your channel but it makes me REALLY want to get a hold of the materials to make my own dice! These look absolutely incredible
Haha, I've had a bunch of those glass balls sitting in my Etsy shopping cart because I had the same idea. Good to know it works! I'm curious about how balanced these are, have you tried them in salt water?
I am certain that the saltwater won't be effective with this set, as it's got so many different materials in it. The best way to test these will just be to roll them a whole bunch. Which I plan to!
@@Rybonator It also occurred to me why people might recommend using mineral oil instead of water - it doesn't expand when it freezes, and it has a WAY higher boiling point than water, so it might not expand and contract as much as water in temperature changes. Water can also grow algae if it's not kept in a dark place. It could be worth trying mineral oil too to see which one stands the test of time better.
This was awesome, would love to see more of these "custom dice with stuff in them" videos like this, and the druid one. Maybe some experimentation on how to keep elements staying in the middle and not floating up to the top or sinking to the bottom of the dice. Necro dice with bones in them would be amazing for example, could be attained by cutting up some skeleton miniatures!
Check out my Halloween set for ones with skulls in them ;D But that would be a good video topic to show how to suspend things in the center more easily. Good idea!
Yesss so cool I just saw a giant glitter dye set that was waaaay out of my budget and was going to TH-cam how to make one. Soo glad this was in my recommended ❤❤
There are so many potentially awesome combinations you can do with this. From various alcohol inks and colors of glitter in combination and maybe even see-thru colored resin if that's doable? A really awesome concept for dice. Love it~
Normally I only show a 20 roll if I get it on the first time when practicing with the dice... This time I faked it for the bit haha. It took about 20 tries :P
If the orb is in the center, they seem perfectly fine to me, though my testing hasn't been extensive yet. But if they are off center, like my gold one, they are mega weighted.
“Hey, missed you.” One would think she’d be a little more angry when she got back lol. I guess that just shows what a great person your wife is.
Oh she's the best. She would NEVER sacrifice anyone for a soul stone
Na, it's passive aggressive jaja
what's the story behind the whole sacrificing his wife thing? I see it all over this channel and it seems interesting.
Alastor But With a Gun he made an infinity stone dice set and of course to obtain the soul stone you have to sacrifice that which you love most. So he started an arc about how he sacrificed his wife to be able to make his soul stone die and this was the end of it.
I like how she wasn’t mad at all when you wished her back.. sacrifice must be a norm at the Rybonator household
Everybody knows that Rybonator and Sacrifice goes together like Goblins and Dice.
@@Rybonator who said dice
Where are the dice??
As corny of a joke as that wish spell was, I love it! Feel free to include your wife in on any future skits like that. It was actually well worth the wait :-)
Now that she is alive again, I'll happily include her :)
@@Rybonator u better
"I will implement gold into anything and everything I can in my life" finally someone who GETS it
It is in fact my passion to bring gold to all the good people in the land :P
Big Pharaoh energy
My first thought when he said that was 'this man is a dragon'.
Ah! Put myrrh in the orb, ground frankincense in the resin, and gold painted numbers.
God-Emperor Approved™
I'm really curious about how this affects the roll result distribution.
I plan to test it in a future video testing dice fairness! As well as how weighted dice really effect your rolls :)
I wonder that too
I'm guessing with how well he gets the air out it should be pretty fair. Even with a little air I'd think because that little bit is free to move it shouldn't really effect how random it is (at least that's my theory lol)
@@jessicaglovsky5704 depends how centered the ball is and how the density of the resin compares to the ball.
@@scottchristofersen2367 very valid point! Didn't think of that
I think if you added a little bit of glycerin it would make the glitter suspend longer and swirl better! Overall it looks great :)
That's a great idea. I will give that a go for sure!
That's a classic trick if you've ever made your own snowglobes :)
Adding nitroglycerin adds a nice blast as well
@@Rybonator Hey, Seriously Creative does resin shakers and she uses a little piece of clear plastic to cap her holes, so the resin can seal on the first go. You may want to take a peek, she seems to have a method down pat.
Hey there! Quick question - for the glycerin thing would it be the food grade kind from the grocery store? Also would it be instead of water or in addition to the water? Im really looking to try this out!!!!
Knowing me, I'd paint the orbs to look like pokeballs before putting them in the dice lol.
These look so cool, btw.
Don't tempt me frodo. I can have a gold+silver set and a pokeball set haha :)
@@Rybonator Do it.
The power of random internet people compels you!
It would be interesting to have a pokeball inside a glass orb that’s only slightly bigger, that way the pokeball could roll freely inside the dice
Livi Hand how would you put the Pokéball inside the glass orb. T opening is tiny af.
Bianca Brooks maybe not glass, but you can get tiny fillable Christmas ornaments that open like gacha capsules
I'd love to see this with mineral oil and say drops of red water! You could get a cool bloody lava lamp type of effect!.
OHhh that's a great idea :)
@@Rybonator It may alter the balance of the dice a tiny bit though, so experiment with different ratios of oil and water and test the dice extensively if you're gonna do it.
I love this idea!
You can test any dice by floating them in saltwater.
Won't the oil and water emulsify after a while, though?
That silver and gold dice is so gorgeous, I need to get my hands on some resin so I can make myself a version with holographic glitter!
Oh absolutely! That would look spectacular :)
Who else expected the intro to be like "What is going on my aesthetic boys its fresh"
Haha Yeah it's a pretty common track
"I will implement gold into anything and everything I can in my life" Same, gold is awesome. Also the dice are really cool
Gold is 100% my aesthetic
I really like that you're one of the only channels I know that consistently shows every failure.
Congrats on your wife's Resurrection as for the gold an silver both looked amazing
It's good to have her back :) Thank you!
Hahaha! Yeah your wife is back! Now you have the power of the soul stone and the wish spell! YOU'RE UNSTOPPABLE!
The universe is whatever I make it ;D
Hey, fledgling dice maker here. Your tutorials are incredibly helpful, easy to follow, informative, and fun to watch. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Thank you for the kind words :) I truly appreciate hearing that
I've seen people freeze water to add resin to close. this dice looks amazing. glad your wife's not mad.
I've heard that might work, I just have doubts. As well, it'd be hard to find a 16mm spherical ice mold haha
@@Rybonator you could always start with a 1 inch cube and melt it down lol.
I was thinking it could help you close your sphere and get a good closer without any bubbles.
Took some trial and error, but that came out really nice! Also, congrats on the return of your wife.
Worth the effort in the end :) And yeah she's ok I guess ;)
I love that you show failures in your videos. Makes it more educational. Subscribed.
I've got plenty more fails where that came from ;D

As I was watching this, I was thinking that it would be cool to maybe get some leag-shaped confetti to put in the sphere for an autumn-themed die.
So glad to have her back :) It get's lonely ya know?

Would the ice end up expanding outside the glass since you have to fill the orb to the brim? Would the glass break?
Water expands when it freezes you wouldn't be able to fully fill the ball.
Sorry, I forgot about the ball being glass when I commented so I’m not sure if that’s will be a major problem.
Water expands when freezing, sure. But that doesn't necessarily mean it will expand enough to break the glass or anything. Given glass has some strength after all; it could likely withstand a very small amount of water expanding a very small amount.

Thank you! I like the celestial vibe it gives as well :) Very proud of these!
Thank you, I'm quite the popular lady at my dungeons and dragons game nights lately! This is lovely and fairly simple! ☺️❤️
Haha that's awesome :) Glad your group enjoys!
I can’t wait to try this
Can't wait to see what you make!
while i would never need to make this, i still find it interesting to watch
I'm glad you like it either way :) Thanks for watching!
I wonder if you could make your resin orb caps away from the orb first, on a surface they don't adhere to, basically just a little dot that you can place on the opening. You could place it over the opening then resin it into place. Might make that capping process easier?
That's not a bad idea! I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get the size right. I know that some people use clear silicone caulking to fill the hole which works well too, but you can see it a bit more.
That is so beautiful omg I adore silver end gold together that dice is so precious what a wonderful job!
Thank you for the kind words Zelda :D I'm glad you liked them!
Great video, thanks for sharing the whole process!! : )
Thanks bud! Glad you liked it :)
thanks for making this video! I was really looking forward to seeing how a swirling dice could be made. The silver one looked amazing!
Of course! Glad you like it :)
THIS IS THE DICE I'VE BEEN DYING FOR XD
Now that you are dead, we can WISH you back to life ;D
Amazing work man!
I was about thinking how to make those type of dices and your video right in time! Gonna try these glass orbs!
Perfect timing then :) Glad you like it!
@@Rybonator yeah, thanks a lot!
By the way, is there any secret how to place glass sphere right in middle of dice?
Great job... I think adding those music notes in it and you got bard dice. Lol
Have you thought of casting a ball then do slush casting so you can make them for any dice?
Thank you! And yes that would make some awesome bard dice!
I haven't thought about that, but I might have to now ;D
Im glad you got your wife back.
Dude! Dude! Duuuuuude!
First they are so f-ing pwetty! 😍
Then: your favorite Pokémon Games are Gold and Silver? Now I love your channel even more! Maybe you could do dice with miniatures of each of the starters in them! ☺
Also: I'm glad the soul of your wife is finally free again :'D
I actually planned that at one point haha :) Just trying to find good enough looking tiny pokemon. They have to be REALLY tine to fit in most dice.
Also thank you :D
@@Rybonator if you wanna be rlly mad you could try to sculpt them yourself with polymer clay or something similar xD
But I can also understand that that would be a hell lot more work^^
I just hope you'll find fitting miniatures soon :D
Also: your welcome :'D
I've seen this technique used to make water globe earrings if you freeze the water in the glitter first then you can easily cover the top with resin without having to cure it really fast so you can get a nice thin coverage and then you just let the ice melt
Oh that's a good idea! I thought that the curing might cause issues, as it heats up when it cures, so I didn't wanna freeze the water
I think youre right, the silver with the gold numbers looks amazing, and that silvery swirling is dreamy !!! 10/10 again :) PS. Great that your wife is part of your "habit" haha...
"Habit" is a nice way to say addiction haha :) Glad you like them!
I'm so happy I stumbled upon this channel! I was planning on making a wooden dice set for my brother for christmas, but this is also a very nice idea! Thanks!
I'm happy you found it too :) Best of luck in your making! Can't wait to see what you create
Do you think that mixing the water with some glycerin would make a cooler effect?
Some people have suggested that, I wouldn't have even thought about it. I'll have to give it a shot :)
@@Rybonator a lot of homemade snowglobe recipes have glycerin in the mix because it "thickens" the water, making the particles swirl and float longer before settling. should work out for a better effect.
This. THIS. This is what will convince me to play DnD with my bf lol. Im off to make my own sparkly dice 🤩
Boom! Tell your BF that he is welcome!
Can't wait to see what you create :)
I've been wanting to make dice like this, they're so beautiful! I love the finished product. Are these dice balanced?
This one seems to be so far! Though my testing will be more extensive later.
Gosh, all of the dice you make are absolutely gorgeous! I only recently found your channel but it makes me REALLY want to get a hold of the materials to make my own dice! These look absolutely incredible
Thank you so much for that :) you absolutely should! It's a super fun and rewarding hobby
Haha, I've had a bunch of those glass balls sitting in my Etsy shopping cart because I had the same idea. Good to know it works!
I'm curious about how balanced these are, have you tried them in salt water?
I am certain that the saltwater won't be effective with this set, as it's got so many different materials in it. The best way to test these will just be to roll them a whole bunch. Which I plan to!
@@Rybonator It also occurred to me why people might recommend using mineral oil instead of water - it doesn't expand when it freezes, and it has a WAY higher boiling point than water, so it might not expand and contract as much as water in temperature changes. Water can also grow algae if it's not kept in a dark place. It could be worth trying mineral oil too to see which one stands the test of time better.
@@VGlauren alcohol actually sounds like the best bet. Some everclear would work great.
@@SylviaRustyFae Didn't think of that, good call! Although I wonder if alcohol could corrode any of the additives like the UV resin or glitter
Algae dice. Make it happen
This was awesome, would love to see more of these "custom dice with stuff in them" videos like this, and the druid one. Maybe some experimentation on how to keep elements staying in the middle and not floating up to the top or sinking to the bottom of the dice. Necro dice with bones in them would be amazing for example, could be attained by cutting up some skeleton miniatures!
Check out my Halloween set for ones with skulls in them ;D
But that would be a good video topic to show how to suspend things in the center more easily. Good idea!
Nat 20, wife back, "I guess so" haha!
She's nice I guess :P
It's SOOOOOOO pretty!!!
Thank you :D Glad you like em
You should try making slytherin dice
Ahh the one true house Dice ;D
Yesss so cool I just saw a giant glitter dye set that was waaaay out of my budget and was going to TH-cam how to make one. Soo glad this was in my recommended ❤❤
Are they weighted correctly? I feel like they may not be.
Good question! Mine seem to be, but I got it pretty dang centered. if it was off, that would not be the case
Thank you for your reply! I might have to try these out.
There are so many potentially awesome combinations you can do with this. From various alcohol inks and colors of glitter in combination and maybe even see-thru colored resin if that's doable? A really awesome concept for dice. Love it~
Damn these are beautiful dice. Now I want a set :(
Thank you! Glad you like em :)
Discovered you only yesterday, super glad I did!
Can’t wait to see what you do next :)
Glad to have you on board the channel! :)
9:51 real talk tho how many times did you actually roll to get that 20?
Normally I only show a 20 roll if I get it on the first time when practicing with the dice...
This time I faked it for the bit haha. It took about 20 tries :P
@@Rybonator nice too know your honest.. good man
Awesome method! I feel like this could be used to make some wicked cool magic eight ball style dice!
Oh yeah they totally could!
Is there a place that sells the swirling glitter dice?
Yep! Check out Dr. Bellcookie games, I did a review on them a few days ago :)
@@Rybonator Thanks, this is the answer I was looking for.
Best video yet 😅 cant wait to try to make these dice
Glad you like it :D Let me know when you do, I'd love to see!
Where did you find the tiny glass balls for the core of the dice?
How do they roll? The ones you reviewed seemed a bit off balance.
If the orb is in the center, they seem perfectly fine to me, though my testing hasn't been extensive yet. But if they are off center, like my gold one, they are mega weighted.
