I have had a ton of people of people asking where I get my Resin and Silicone Mold Making material, so I put an Amazon affiliate link in the description of the video. :) For full transparency, if you buy using that link instead of just searching it on amazon, I get a small % kickback from your purchase. Don't want to seem dishonest!
Rybonator Would you be ok with making me a set of this exact color?? With maybe light green numbering. Even without painted numbers. I would be ecstatic to pay you for these lol they’re beautiful
I was able to make 2 practice molds, then a full set of 7 molds with the bottles in the link. My problem is, that one of my metal dice fell of the glue before it set. I have one bad mold in the set of 7 and I dont have enough rubber to make more.
Heh thank you :) I'm happy that everyone has been so appreciative of my content. I totally get it though. Most others are selling their dice, so they don't want to give away their secrets. It's a hobby for me right now unless something changes, so I actively WANT others to try it and we can talk about it haha :) But I think even if I sell mine in the future, I'd show the process, because I wouldn't ever have gotten to a point where I COULD sell without everyone's support from my tutorials :)
Eric Badder Some people want to make their own dice because seeing other people sell pretty dice sets can be utterly inspiring. And some people make enough money from this hobby to ACTUALLY live off of, so technically they really could “get a life” from something fun like this! No need to be rude about it. ^_^
My last two rational braincells: You have almost 100 dice, you don't need more and you certainly don't need to start making your own aswell. Please, you have exams coming up and dissertations and- Goblin me: shiniesss... Brain: Oh for fuck's sake
@@Rybonator Sometimes I wonder if all D&D/tabletop players were really just goblins in a former life, and when they see dice, they are reduced to their former primal selves. It's the only explanation for such a specific, widespread obsession.
You just gotta show em' whose boss. Next time you step on one, sand it's edges down in front of the other dice to assert your dominance. Or yeah just get rounded edges haha
I love how it looks like there's two different shades of resin! I also personally love naked gemstone dice. Really just lets you enjoy that light refraction from the inside!
I agree! The colors change depending on what material they are sitting on when the light can come in so clearly that way. It makes a gorgeous effect :)
True, you can get probably 100 or more is what I am told before you need to remake some. I am nowhere near that yet, so no worries, but this is a great point for others to know :)
@@Rybonator even if you got to the point where they've been used to the point where they're too degraded to use, you could probably use one of the sets that you weren't happy with/could stand to get scratched when you're cutting new molds to make more. alternatively you could use the same metal dice that you used for these since they aren't too badly scratched.
I have never been more happy to stumble across a TH-cam Creator before. I just started watching your stuff and I am mesmerized. Your die sets are beautiful and are inspiring me to get back into my beginner silicone casting.
I was caught off guard by how much this video made me feel like I would enjoy doing something like this. I don't really have a solid hobby, and this looks like something I could really get in to. Thank you for this, and for the rest of the videos that I am about to go watch in rapid succession.
It's super fun and really rewarding! They also make great gifts for your tabletop friends. I totally recommend it. Also I'm glad that you like my content :) Thanks for watching! Let me know if you ever start making dice! I'd love to see what you create.
I am the hero of my gaming group thanks to your videos. I started a dnd group, and no one had dice, so I made everyone dice and trays, and everyone is really favoring me, like giving me healing potions and a LOT of swords. I just wanted to say thanks!
Can't believe I just simply tumbled on to your channel. I never had any table top experience nor played anything related to it, the closet I came to Table top is by watching Totalbiscuit and his tabletop simulator and that was years ago. I may not have any experience to table top nor need any dice in my life but your amazing craftsmanship is something to admire.
Thank you for that my friend :) I'm glad you like what I do, even if it's not typically in your wheel-house! Hopefully you like what else I have to come :)
I'd love to see yellow or gold numbering, it would look really nice with the blue! It would be a contrasting hue and brightness, plus it would resemble lapis lazuli if you're a fan of that. Can't wait to see the finished product!
You should do a bright white for the numbering The next color should be like a swirly mix of orange and red, _roarange_ Also love the sharp dice, not only do they look aesthetically pleasing, *_they somehow make rolling 1s more painful_*
I am actually pretty inspired by your leftover test to try some holo glitter in a really black or dark blue/purple base to get neat "galaxy" dice. Great video!
Thank you for the quick how to videos. The others I have seen took too much time. You have simple and concise explanations, Glad youtube algorithms led me to you.
Hey me too! Glad you got to check out my stuff :) Of course! I am just happy that you like my content. I pretty much just say what I have to say and then call it good :)
So the dice that I usually make and the ones that you typically buy Are rounded and dull, but now take a look at this magnificent die Less safe, it's true, but get some hot glue and put it on the top of this guy Get to moldin' and you're golden Art and glow, good to go Thanks for watching and I'm Rybenator bye
These look so great and food coloring is so available, so its awesome that you're using that! I love it when you can just use common household products for creative things!
These are absolutely beautiful! I'm just delving into the world of dice making and I was wondering if you might ever do a video about what supplies you use. All of your videos have been super helpful so far and I can't wait to try and make my first set.
Thank you, I am glad that you like them :) Sure I can do that! I try and show everything that I use in each of my videos, as sometimes things change between them. I don't want anyone to ever miss out.
If you cut the bottom off of the cups you could push them down further for a slightly better seal so you don't have to use tape. Absolutely gorgeous dice btw. Awesome work!
Very keen for the polishing vid, your videos inspire me to keep up with this in hopes for the perfect dice. Also you should totally make a discord so we can make a little community around all this diy nerd stuff so we can all share tips, tricks and creations it would be great
I appreciate hearing that. I am glad that you enjoy them :) Polishing video is on the list for an upcoming video. I have 2 more that I would like to make beforehand, so that I have a backlog of dice to show more polishing methods. I can look into making that :) If you are unaware, there currently exists a facebook group called Dice Making Discoveries that is all about dice making. Some people make some really spectacular stuff on there!
Thank you SO MUCH for making this video, I’ve been wanting to make my own dice for a long time. After watching this I feel just like He-Man, “I HAVE THE POWER!”💜🎀💜
The sharp edged dice were always my favorite... I might have to look into making a set of molds for myself, and trying my hand at casting some (pun intended!) for my D&D campaign.
I just found your channel, and I am SUPER impressed with everything. I've been wanting to start making dice not only for myself, but for friends and our DnD games. These videos are great and hopefully once the paycheck comes around, I can start trying this. Thank you so much for these!
I play pathfinder and dnd. My dad has a MASSIVE dice set that ive slowly inherited half of because we both are guilty of constantly getting new sets and i love the difference designs you can get and want to make my own :D
i have found a really nice silicone dice model on amazon for 60 and its a single mold with all the dice in it. Pretty nice! but this still helped me greatly with trying to figure out why my stuff was coming out tacky or just weirdly squishy and not hard
Your videos are always inspiring. Just got my first moulds done and got some new resin, cant wait. First batch with was great but the resin leaves a slight tackiness when dried, why i got new stuff. Keep making them, would love to see a video on removing bubbles without the machine. Thank you heaps! you rock
Glad you enjoy them :) Best of luck in your own dice making adventure! It's difficult to get bubbles out without a pressure pot, but I have had some luck before. I'll experiment to see if I can get a good way and if so, I'll show it :) Thanks for watching!
Will do! It is last on my list of 6 ;) (I actually tried, but it came out orange and yellow and not just yellow. But happy accident! Because it looks like the soul gem haha. I will be working on the Mind Stone tonight :) )
Absolutely gorgeous! They remind me of blue tinted goldstone :D And that dark color is like seeing the starlit sky out in the desert! Beautiful~ I think a pewter numbering would look lovely against that clear blue, or a platinum (bright white silver)
These look AMAZING ! It's such a nice blue with the silver glitter; purple, silver, white, or green would suit the numbering very well. Keeping the color palette in the cool tones.
Plain ol' white would look pretty great I bet :) Silver or purple might get lost, and make it harder to read, but they would fit super well with the theme.
Those look incredible!! Absolutely stunning! I would love to see a smidge of violet sparkle in the mix with that potential dark set you want to do.. I feel like the purple could give a really stunning effect with that silver!
That blue is great. I have a D&D friend who would love these. My mind just sees the nice crystal throwing gems that some reclusive monk would pull out of a bag and turn the tide of a failed skirmish in his favour.
I wanna make dice sets for my party mates and i’ve been so nervous to make a silicone mold, so thank you for including that in this video, it made it less intimidating and i think i’ll start making dice properly soon ☺️☺️
I believe you can feather the intake valve to a semi-open position while you're pulling a vacuum to keep the silicone from 'sploding like it did right there.
Thank You for linking the items needed. I followed the links and bought them for my husband for Christmas. This is what he wanted unfortunately he added to much resin.
So you can wait for the bubbles to rise in your cup for about 10 minutes, and then pop some of them with brief pass with a lighter, and that will pop a large amount of them. It won't get all of them, for that you really need a pressure pot, but it get's a good amount! I have made clear dice without the pot before, sometimes it is just luck.
@@calliopeirwin712 if you did a light blue set with brown you could make the bubbles look like water :) or you won't really see bubbles if you use noone Transparent dies
sparkly math rocks go click clack so nice, so sparkle. I can make another bag for another 100 dice right RIGHT Great, now I gotta make a set of dice for every character i've ever played, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE ENABLED.
These are incredible! I love your dice making videos; I found them when I was wanting to make my own and found them super informative. I have my own apartment now, so I can make dice without being disturbed; I can't wait to use your videos to help me along the way ♡ That last obsidian like color was gorgeous! I'm personally a fan of forest green dice, I have so many green sets!
I'm glad that you like them :) I really liked dark ocean style color too, but didn't think others would like it that much since it didn't pop out. Good to know they did! Best of luck to you in your dice making journey :) Send pics!
For ages I've been pining after dice and I didn't realize how, I guess, doable they are to make yourself? I really love these dice in particular! I might need to pick up some materials to make something like this soon
Hi! Love your videos) I find it very comfortable to use medical syringe to fill my molds, you should try it sometime) Also, can you please also talk about cases in which you prefer not to polish at all or just a little in your upcoming polishing video?
I have used one of those as well :) It was very hit or miss for me, but it was SO fast, that I still do from time to time. Sure! Sometimes I don't, so that's a good point. I'll bring it up :)
Excellent video, very helpful. I've been thinking about "cloning" one of my MtG D20 Spindowns so I can have a transparent, gem-looking one to put in a necklace I bought and this video provides a very decent starting point for my little endeavour.
Thanks for the tip on how to make dice molds. I want to get into resin and I play D&D a lot and want to make my own dice. so thank you for the little tutorial. I watched the other video from a few months ago as well for the not sharp edged dice. Now I just need to get my materials to make my own molds cause they are very pricy.
Here is the one I got :) www.amazon.com/ABLAZE-Gallon-Stainless-Degassing-Chamber/dp/B071KZXVRR/ref=sr_1_3?gclid=Cj0KCQjws7TqBRDgARIsAAHLHP6Jrxuey3pfjvyfHDbl8ei2P_sV2tOy55BoesM7YwfTbbKSFEO4NcUaAq3pEALw_wcB&hvadid=324822965660&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9009674&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=5699163736291952653&hvtargid=aud-647006051489%3Akwd-722603912634&hydadcr=29388_10014643&keywords=vacuum+chamber+ablaze&qid=1565354871&s=gateway&sr=8-3
I like using my vacuum for silicone, but I do recognize that pressure works as well. It's just quiter and so it makes it a whole lot easier to set up, and much more pleasant.
I have had a ton of people of people asking where I get my Resin and Silicone Mold Making material, so I put an Amazon affiliate link in the description of the video. :)
For full transparency, if you buy using that link instead of just searching it on amazon, I get a small % kickback from your purchase. Don't want to seem dishonest!
How many dices can you make with these resin bottles ?
Thank you! These dice are awesome.
What do you do if you don't have a pressure pot?
Rybonator Would you be ok with making me a set of this exact color?? With maybe light green numbering. Even without painted numbers. I would be ecstatic to pay you for these lol they’re beautiful

Only drawback is that if you step on the d4 it does a d8 damage instead of an actual d4 damage
Rogues just got that much more deadly haha.
Nah, sometimes it can be a d12 damage
@@lazanho Might as well make it a full d20!
sharp edge d4s are caltrops
No, it'd be a d12, 1d12 piercing damage, 100d8+4 psychic damage.
This man is using dice on a stand made of dice to make even more dice. *It's the most meta dice creation I've ever seen.*

@@magiv4205 They could also have been trolls hoarding their massive amounts of dice in their caves. Only coming out to feed. (Describing myself here.)
@@Rybonator that also describes dragons, although trolls and goblins probably fit 99.9% (myself included) of players better than these noble creatures
@@magiv4205 haha that's true! I feel a kinship with the goblins
When I was a kid (well 16-18), I had a set of similar sharp edge dice. Then one day I stepped on my 4 sided die. Yeah, I'll never own another.
You just gotta show em' whose boss. Next time you step on one, sand it's edges down in front of the other dice to assert your dominance.
Or yeah just get rounded edges haha
@Nate Macrae haha oh hell yeah
Weaklings.
Id say thats a d4 damage roll
That's why mommy taught me to put my toys away....lol
You cant keep doing this to me, man. I've got so many dice but I dont have THESE ones so... guess i gotta make more.
I specifically aimed this video knowing that it would hurt the collectors out there. Take that!

Step one: find pretty looking galaxy.
Step two: squish it through paper towel. Be careful with radiation and black holes.
Step three: Make the dice.
If it's a particularly dense galaxy, you might have to use 2 paper towels.

Silicone molds degrade slightly each time they are used.
You get a lot of castings but they definitely do not last forever.

@@calliopeirwin712 yeah I am not too worried :) Like you said, I can just make new molds with the dice I got from this set of molds

It's difficult to get bubbles out without a pressure pot, but I have had some luck before. I'll experiment to see if I can get a good way and if so, I'll show it :) Thanks for watching!
make sure to include the wiggle in the silicone mould to create registration marks for multiple reuse.
True :) That's a great tip!
INFINITY STONES! Make the Mind Stone next! That beautiful golden gem!
Will do! It is last on my list of 6 ;) (I actually tried, but it came out orange and yellow and not just yellow. But happy accident! Because it looks like the soul gem haha. I will be working on the Mind Stone tonight :) )
@@Rybonator I saw your remark on DMC or was it Goblins? RiP the wife. XD
@@TruesMidori Yeah, gonna miss her. But got a cool orange dice set, so whoop!
DUDE I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING! The d6 looks like the tesseract
Ooh, this gives me ideas for a wave base for a custom naiad. I hadn't thought of adding glitter into the water, just the foam.
I've been wanting to create an ocean base for a Triton Character for a while as well :)
These remind me of the dice from the webcomic, DICE. I know, title is a little on the nose, but the comic is amazing
Yes
I haven't seen that, i need to check it out :)
The title is DICE: The cube that changes everything 😁👍
Absolutely gorgeous! They remind me of blue tinted goldstone :D And that dark color is like seeing the starlit sky out in the desert! Beautiful~
I think a pewter numbering would look lovely against that clear blue, or a platinum (bright white silver)
Ohh that's the first pewter I have heard, not a bad idea at all :)
It would be interesting to see them inked the color of the darker mass (with glitter) that you made. Even the numbers would sparkle.
That would be cool! It might be a bit hard to see, but it would look like a black whole in space :)
I colored my first self-cast d20 with eyeshadow after many fails with liquid colors. It got a real nice blue-greyish tint that's semi-transparent
I'll have to give that a shot :)
Just found your channel. Loving the content. Looking forward to the polishing video.
Glad you like it! Be on the lookout. It should be in the next 2-3 vids :)
These look AMAZING !
It's such a nice blue with the silver glitter; purple, silver, white, or green would suit the numbering very well. Keeping the color palette in the cool tones.
Plain ol' white would look pretty great I bet :) Silver or purple might get lost, and make it harder to read, but they would fit super well with the theme.
Still not sure how I ended up on this video the other day, but definitely glad I did! Awesome channel
Hey I'm glad you did too :) TH-cam can suck you in to the weirdest stuff sometimes...
the coolest dice set I ever saw, was a set of "Infinity Dice" and it so reminded me of your set here.
These are gorgeous! Why only another set? You have to collect the infinity dice!
The InfiniD20's
@@JBloodthorn you win, best comment
Well now I have to make all 6 sets. You have convinced me! :)
Those look incredible!! Absolutely stunning!
I would love to see a smidge of violet sparkle in the mix with that potential dark set you want to do.. I feel like the purple could give a really stunning effect with that silver!
I like that idea :) A shiny metalic purple would look spectacular with the darker set.
Thank you 😊
O i cant wait to be able to make my dice i hope i get a pressure pot soon
I hope you do too :) But if not, just make non-transparent ones! They will still be awesome :)
Thank you
That blue is great.
I have a D&D friend who would love these.
My mind just sees the nice crystal throwing gems that some reclusive monk would pull out of a bag and turn the tide of a failed skirmish in his favour.
Like some sort of magic marble that explodes into energy of the universe! :)
Rybonator that would work haha.
to make a dice, you need to have dice
LOGIC!!
You gotta spend money to make money 🤷♂️
I used the *dice* to *make* the *dice*
The circle of life
I can use resin to make dice :I , how about that ? Just buy a 300$/£/€ Anycubic photon and buy some resin !
@@notincognito4660 "I used the stones to destroy the stones."
I wanna make dice sets for my party mates and i’ve been so nervous to make a silicone mold, so thank you for including that in this video, it made it less intimidating and i think i’ll start making dice properly soon ☺️☺️
These look awesome!!
Thank you! I appreciate that :)
I believe you can feather the intake valve to a semi-open position while you're pulling a vacuum to keep the silicone from 'sploding like it did right there.
Yeah, I have since learned my lesson lol. But I was freaking out at the time. Great tip though :)
This may have been answered in another video, but is there a difference in a vaccuum chamber and a pressure pot when dealing with air bubbles?
interested too...
You are literally the dice man ........... AWSOME
Make a nebula in a grey void of space! Like having a splash of color through a grey one.
Great idea :)
Thank You for linking the items needed. I followed the links and bought them for my husband for Christmas. This is what he wanted unfortunately he added to much resin.
That's awesome! I hope that he had a fantastic Christmas then :) Glad to help!
if I don't use a pressure pot, is there any way to get fewer bubbles in the dice?
So you can wait for the bubbles to rise in your cup for about 10 minutes, and then pop some of them with brief pass with a lighter, and that will pop a large amount of them. It won't get all of them, for that you really need a pressure pot, but it get's a good amount! I have made clear dice without the pot before, sometimes it is just luck.
@@Rybonator is there any way to make the bubbles look like they belong? like with glitter or a certain color?
@@calliopeirwin712 if you did a light blue set with brown you could make the bubbles look like water :) or you won't really see bubbles if you use noone Transparent dies
@@Rybonator would making dice without taking out the bubbles mess up the dice? I'm talking about shape, I don't care about looks.
this dice are just stunning man
I appreciate that man! I was/am really proud of these :)
Me: got two new sets of dice in the mail yesterday
Also me: .......must have the pointy gem shinies and must have them *_now_*
Ahh, the sign of a true dice goblin. Welcome to the army ;D
Randomly got recommended. This is definitely a cool project.
It's the universe trying to get you into DnD and Dice making :)
I love the color of this set white sliver or pruple wat be nice metallic or pearl
Silver seems to be pretty dang popular of a choice :) pearl would be great too
I’d love to see you create a set of opal . Or dragons eye color ... nicely done .
Added to my to do list! :)
sparkly math rocks go click clack so nice, so sparkle.
I can make another bag for another 100 dice right
RIGHT
Great, now I gotta make a set of dice for every character i've ever played, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE ENABLED.
Mom always said I was an enabler, LOOK WHERE IT GOT ME.
These are incredible! I love your dice making videos; I found them when I was wanting to make my own and found them super informative. I have my own apartment now, so I can make dice without being disturbed; I can't wait to use your videos to help me along the way ♡
That last obsidian like color was gorgeous! I'm personally a fan of forest green dice, I have so many green sets!
I'm glad that you like them :) I really liked dark ocean style color too, but didn't think others would like it that much since it didn't pop out. Good to know they did!
Best of luck to you in your dice making journey :) Send pics!
@@Rybonator I definitely will! ♡
no one: ...
The people who read Dice:
DICER INTENSIFIES!!!!!!
Maximum Dicer
Lol this more applies to dnd than that webtoon but sure
Just find these scattered around your room one day.
For ages I've been pining after dice and I didn't realize how, I guess, doable they are to make yourself? I really love these dice in particular! I might need to pick up some materials to make something like this soon
My initial thought was that glow in the dark numbers would look suuuper cool, but... when would you be using dices in the dark anyway?
Pssh, I would find a way! haha But you are right, they would look great. :)
Well now my already outrageous collection will become insurmountable
It will never end! >:)
TH-cam: "Yo check these dice out" Me: "Hey awesome!! I like this video!!"
Thanks for the alley-oop TH-cam!
That dark blue colour at the end looks so cool! It would definitely make a rad set of dice! :)
I would for sure make another set of those if I was going to play a Triton! A warrior of the deep ocean deserves such fierce dice!
Hi! Love your videos) I find it very comfortable to use medical syringe to fill my molds, you should try it sometime)
Also, can you please also talk about cases in which you prefer not to polish at all or just a little in your upcoming polishing video?
I have used one of those as well :) It was very hit or miss for me, but it was SO fast, that I still do from time to time.
Sure! Sometimes I don't, so that's a good point. I'll bring it up :)
Excellent video, very helpful.
I've been thinking about "cloning" one of my MtG D20 Spindowns so I can have a transparent, gem-looking one to put in a necklace I bought and this video provides a very decent starting point for my little endeavour.
I have a MTG spindown planned for the near future ;D
@@Rybonator Ooh!
Which one? I was hoping to make a deep blue one with either my "Dimir" or "Dragons of Tarkir" spindown as a base. :)
The black the you made with the extra resin but put a vibrant red swirling in the black
That would look great honestly :)
Thanks for the tip on how to make dice molds. I want to get into resin and I play D&D a lot and want to make my own dice. so thank you for the little tutorial. I watched the other video from a few months ago as well for the not sharp edged dice. Now I just need to get my materials to make my own molds cause they are very pricy.
Absolutely! Best of luck to you in your making :)
Yeah they can be a bit pricey, but once you make the molds, they will last for a lot of uses :)
Can you put a link in for the vaccuum pot?
Here is the one I got :) www.amazon.com/ABLAZE-Gallon-Stainless-Degassing-Chamber/dp/B071KZXVRR/ref=sr_1_3?gclid=Cj0KCQjws7TqBRDgARIsAAHLHP6Jrxuey3pfjvyfHDbl8ei2P_sV2tOy55BoesM7YwfTbbKSFEO4NcUaAq3pEALw_wcB&hvadid=324822965660&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9009674&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=5699163736291952653&hvtargid=aud-647006051489%3Akwd-722603912634&hydadcr=29388_10014643&keywords=vacuum+chamber+ablaze&qid=1565354871&s=gateway&sr=8-3
Great inspiration and step by step. I have been testing and experimenting with different stuff. keep it up!
Pressure has been proven to work better than vacuum. Plus it doesn't overflow
I like using my vacuum for silicone, but I do recognize that pressure works as well. It's just quiter and so it makes it a whole lot easier to set up, and much more pleasant.
