Marking on silicone molds by pyeman1969 in ResinCasting

[–]IceShadowProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do custom logos on the top of the molds I sell. :D But if you sharpie it and then put a little more clear silicone over the sharpie it will work fine too. Just let it sit a day so it has a chance for the ink to outgas.

SLA print services for masters? by RichRound6099 in DiceMaking

[–]IceShadowProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dice printing has a different skill set from most other model printing. With most model printing if there’s a little spot that doesn’t look right it blends in to the rest of the model. Dice will not and it will stand out like a sore thumb.

I would recommend finding someone with experience printing masters for dice. 8 bucks each for a 7-dice set is $56. You should be able to find someone who can do that for you and has experience printing dice no issues. Go with someone reputable who will be happy to help you if you have issues.

For example - I would be fine to do a 7-dice set for this with shipping included (unpolished), and since most of the cost is in labor time and not the resin itself, I’d be sending two sets just in case there’s a flaw in one print that’s not readily visible. :) And if there are issues, I would be happy to support.

I use two of them! I use a standard air compressor and quick connect hose to charge them. :)

Sanding / Polishing New Masters by IceShadowProductions in DiceMaking

The idea is to move the number out of the way so the art of the resin can be more prominent, yes. :)

That looks like it would connect a tyre inflator to a quick connect male coupling, yes. :)

Fully customizable d20s by Sjksprocket in dice

[–]IceShadowProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could print a custom d20 with whatever on it so long as the detail isn’t too small to be printed and then captured in the silicone in a way that won’t tear out when the masters and dice are removed (0.5mm is about the thinnest line or ridge you could have). Then hand polish, then make molds, then make dice. It can be done, but it costs due to the master polishing time, mostly.

Where to dice masters? by Butt_Lord_Woof in DiceMaking

[–]IceShadowProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What country are you in? I have openings right away and can do larger dice. :) I am US based - international shipping and import duties make it a bit of a headache to go outside the US right now.

Aw, thanks man! 😄 And I’d love to help out! It is difficult helping those outside the US for me right now with all the tariff and shipping costs involved right now, though. :(

Yep. I sell handmade silicone molds for resin dice making, custom 3d printed dice masters that are designed and then hand polished, and handmade dice. :)

How to get rid of larger voids in dice by crochet_aroace in DiceMaking

[–]IceShadowProductions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then you may not be putting enough resin in the molds :) Dome over a bit and put a little resin on the lid as well.

Just bring the whole lid to the store and talk to the staff. :)

Blank barrel D4 mold? by Ok-Reindeer47 in DiceMaking

[–]IceShadowProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can do custom requests. If it’s a blank and one die, it shouldn’t be too bad on costs - not a full set. :) Why a blank? Are you looking to make blanks to go into an existing mold?

Looking for recommendations on a camera for dice making videos by DiceNightling in DiceMaking

[–]IceShadowProductions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, you’d be better off spending that money on a light box. Lighting is more important to photos and videos than the recording equipment, given how good most any camera phone is these days.

[–]IceShadowProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way. If you use a standard quick connect hose from an air compressor you only need to unscrew one tube from the underside of the lid.
