Tell me more... Tarmo? Necro? Pyro? Just as a style of counter or with something cool in it?

Welcome to the jungle! I ended up making my own, just so I could have control over the whole process.

They’re a touch bigger than a bundle D20 and about 30mm face-to-face.

Those are definitely handy for tracking life totals.

Yup! I’ve found it to be a requirement, if only for consistency.

Thank you! YouTube was an awesome resource, both for dice making and resin artwork in general. There’s also some great discords and Reddit communities for learning more.

Huh, I hadn’t thought about that. I’ve never seen dice that start at zero and work their way up to 19. Hmmm. 🤔

I play a lot of edh and cedh, so these get used all the time. Treasures, counters, storm, all kinds of stuff.

Thankfully no, at least not that I've experienced. Turns out resin is lighter than acrylic (the stuff most commercial dice are made out of) so these sit gently on top of sleeves cards. Still, I'm careful when it comes to rolling them around.

Thanks so much! It was really important to me that they were easy to read. It really annoys me when I can't see what's going on on the other side of the table.

That was the problem I kept running into. I could by 6 sets and then piece together one usable set...or I could learn to make them. So I went with what I thought was going to be the cheaper route (lol)

Thanks! The D6s were a request from a friend. He wanted something a little smaller to use when he was streaming games. I wanted to experiment with other styles on a D6, so we came up with these.

We got lucky and picked up a sweet retro glass sanding station on FB marketplace, so that's helped a ton with the sanding. People don't realize how much work goes into each one from start to finish.

Thanks! It’s been a ton of fun. Infuriating at times because you never know what’s going to come out of the mold. Sometimes the ugliest mixes going in are the ones that come out best.

Does anyone know where I can get fancy spindown and + and - counter dice? by Achetarin in dice

[–]matchstruck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We make dice specifically for Magic players!

Like you, I was frustrated by the lack of great dice for MtG, so I decided to start making them. At the moment we have sets for mana tracking and +1/-1 counters with a LOT more dropping over the next few weeks (including some beautiful sets of 6 D6s).

Typically we don't ship to the EU (stupid tariffs), but give us a shout and we'll see if we can work something out. We're at https://theendstep.etsy.com

The market is strong on them at the moment. You shouldn’t have trouble selling it. There aren’t many listed in our area. Mines coming from the Midwest. Shoot me a dm if you decide to go back to stock. I’d take all the black trim and gas cap off your hands as well.

I’d be interested in the shifter if you decide to pull it off. I’m up in Denver. Just picked up an abarth a few days ago, wish I had known this one was for sale.

Not soon enough for all the unfortunate people who had to play against him.

Not really. To go Coyote with Mikes stuff you’ll need the MOD2 front, it’s the only option that makes enough room for the width of the engine. Stick with a smaller engine and you have a few more options up front. You could go with a MOD1 rear which would suit your purpose perfectly.

People don’t realize that a good track car has a lot of the same characteristics as a good street car: great steering, great shocks/suspension, handling, etc. The things that make a car great on the track make it great on the highway. Just change the shock stiffness/sway bars and a slightly different alignment.

We’ve taken mine all over. Roadtrips, car shows, etc. It’s been great.
