Mobius One Sided Die

Novelty 1-sided die. It's a mobius strip with the number 1 cut into it. I can't think of any real use for it, but - hey - you know it would be fun to add this one to your collection! At the very least you can use it to demonstrate to your players just how very, very screwed they are. Available in the large size with the one pressed into the side and the smaller size with the one cut all the way through. The image above is of the second version, printed in silver, and being worn as a necklace.

Cage Dice

Six sided die without numbers or dots. Has bars where the gaps between them count the number. The side facing you, for example, is the six side. Available in six versions. Full (the one above) has a small ball trapped inside to rattle around as you roll it and is sized as regular, smaller, and smallest. The empty version (below) also comes in regular, smaller, and smallest.

Shapeways is an online company that allows 3D modelers to upload their own designs and have these printed as real-world objects in a variety of materials. You can order these for yourself or make them available for sale. I knew right away what I'd have to use this for. I've always liked dice. I'm not into gambling and haven't played board games or role playing games since I was a kid, but I've always found something pleasing about the geometric forms of dice. I've been adding them in with my other creations ever since and even managed to sell a few. I've even got a bunch included in the Guinness World Record's largest dice collection.

If you have any requests or comments regarding my dice, please feel free to speak up. I'm always open to suggestions and criticisms. I'll try to post once every week or so until I've displayed my full collection here and then just when I've come up with something new. That won't happen for a while, though, since I've got quite a lot. If you're interested in the rest of my work (more designs for Shapeways as well as t-shirts and other things) then check out the other pages listed at the top.
