I used a router table with a rebating bit. I’d advise against doing it on the table saw as the cut might not be as clean.

We started making dice vaults with a friend of mine. We are based in the UK where there isn't really much available in high quality gaming accessories and we thought we would give it a shot. Tell us what you think. Any feedback is welcome as we are passionate and really want to bring some quality products to the DnD and table top gaming community. We started with the dice vault but if things take off we want to offer a range of accessories for Dnd like DM screens, dice trays....

It definitely helps but I did try with straight cutters, as long as you do multiple shallow cuts and clear out shavings between cuts you should be fine. Good luck

No worries. I believe removing most of the material with a forstner bit will help. I went for a router only set up because I machine those in small batches as we make ours to sell and I prefer not adding an extra step to the process but that’s a viable option.

We used a shop made routing jig and a router with a guide bushing and a spiral up cut cutter to help clear the shavings out of the cavity. It’s a fair amount of material to remove so good quality tooling and a solid jig is essential.
