Title: Re: GOD's DICE - 3D printed in Steel Post by: cKleinhuis on August 21, 2014, 12:10:09 PM so, what about laplacian properties for that dice ?! i supsect it is quite unbalanced when rolling it a few hundret times, i am asking because it would be an ideal present for a player friend of mine which is really into board games... but a biased dice is not an option...

Title: Re: GOD's DICE - 3D printed in Steel Post by: KRAFTWERK on August 21, 2014, 03:32:28 PM No he does not, or maybe he does.. ;)
Well I was thinking about doing a real balanced dice, but even if I try I could never say 100% that it is, so real players will not accept it anyways, this is more art & design than it is function... like most of my stuff O0 Title: Re: GOD's DICE - 3D printed in Steel Post by: cKleinhuis on August 21, 2014, 03:44:30 PM in fact even "normal" dices cant be perfectly balanced, because even the color printed on one side, or small holes make a difference ... :D |
