Hello Again
asked me to write down the details of the materials I used while making the dice. In this pot, I will talk about both my materials and the dice I made.
I have spent a total of 216 euros so far, but this expenditure includes the materials that I completely disgraced at first.
My list of materials for spending 216 euros
- Silicone Rubber Soft 1:1 x 2 (This material is used when making molds, I had to buy it twice because the first molds I made were crooked)
- Sandpaper Set Soft Pads 100 x 75 mm 9-Piece Wet and Dry
- Mica powder set
- Alcohol ink set
- 100 pieces plastic transfer pipette
- Faburo Respirator Half Mask Dust Protection Breathing Mask with Protective Glasses for Dust-Proof Spray Paint
- Epoxy resin A-B x 3 (I haven't used all of them yet. Resin is the main chemical used in making membranes, that's why there is a mask)
- Fillings (sparklers, stars, skulls, etc.)
- Wooden sticks for mixing
Also this month I will buy Pressure pot and Air compresser to prevent bubbles. Their total price seems to be around 200 Euros. Once I get professional at this, which takes some time, I'll start selling the dice. In this way, custom-made dice show a great variety of prices. There are especially many sellers on Etsy and Instagram. Approximately one set of special production dice is sold for 25-120 Euros.
Materials I Used
This dice set I made for my husband. He asked me to do something galaxy-like and I tried it. I really tried! I tried to make these dice while broadcasting on Twitch. But I had a problem with the colors. The color purple on the alcohol ink came out in Magenta! I added white and blue to make it purple but oddly enough it looked yellowish on the surface with the light inside the container. I couldn't solve it. But it looks good when I put it in the sun and take pictures. I really don't understand my problem. Now I'm looking at the final version of the dice and the color is weird again.
Also, when I painted the letters again, the mistakes on the dice became much more obvious because of the bubbles.
I won't be broadcasting again with a mask on my face! My speeches are completely nonsense, nothing is understood :D
