Project Update: 77% Fulfilled!

Hi everyone!

Just a quick update. We are 77% (or 7/9 backers) fulfilled! I just need to anodize and tumble one of the backers dice and am awaiting the remaining backer to submit their survey. The Shamrocks were more popular than I anticipated and they're generally a joy to make. I hope you folks enjoy those and the Sakuras! That's about all for now, thank you and have a good start of the week!

Project Update: Anodizing and finishing in progress!

Hi everyone!

Just a quick update. It's been a while since I've been able to post an update with photos, the shop is reaching neutron star density in terms of how cramped it is and finding table space is becoming increasingly challenging. 

I've finished machining the dice and they're in various stages of anodizing and sanding. 

For those of you who grew up with the Fallout series of video games or are enjoying the series on Amazon Prime dice in that theme will probably be next, I'll hopefully have some photos soon. 

Sakura and Shamrock dice might ship as early as end of this week. Thank you and have a good rest of the week!

Project Update: Surveys out, machining operation 1 almost finished!

Hi everyone!
Just a quick update. They surveys have been sent out. Thank you so much to those who filled it in already, it helps me predict how many of each I should make. By far the most popular dice was the Two Tone Sakura (engraved). I anticipate starting op2 today (pip side 1). Then it will be sanded, etched, anodized, and them stone washed. 

I have a lot more D6 dice projects in the works and this is my second one with artwork. I also just started deep engraving metal with my new fiber laser so I'm not so limited by how fine the detail is as I used to be with milling. If there's anything you'd like to see in the future I'm always open to suggestions and will mail a free pair to the person whose suggestion I end up using. At this time in titanium, the color reds and black as well as more than two tone colors are probably my limitations (although stuff like blue and yellow go nicely....that is an upcoming project). 
And for those asking for D20s, I've got to laser engrave them, so that may happen sometime in the next few months. 
Thank you and have a good rest of the week!
