Question:

Making your own trick dice?

Is this possible? I'm using this for a project, so it can be as obvious as you want.

Trick dice are basically dice that are weighted at one end, so it'll land on a certain number. Again, it's for a project, so it can be noticeable.. :)

  1. yes its possible you can cut squares from litle pieces of paper and tape or staple them together. but the side that you weigh down the most wont be the number it lands on it will be the opposite number. you can weigh one side down by glueing extra squares to the inside. good luck :)


  2. Oh yes, you can drill out the dots and fill them with lead.

    Also you can have dice that don't have the standard pattern of 1-6 dots. Some dice will have 2 ones or 2 sixes this way making the totals regularly higher or lower than seven (which is the most common combination of two standard dice)

    There are several other way you can cheat at dice.

  3. This isn't terribly hard.  Take a die and drill about a quarter of the way through the die.  A simple hand drill is strong enough to do this.  You can then fill in the hole with something dense like liquid lead.  Then when the lead cools it will harden.  You could do this multiple times on the face opposite what you want to show, or drill where the pips are.

  4. There are many forms of cooked dice,

    High lows where the dots go from 4 to 6 and from 1 to 3.

    Bricks where one side of the dice is shaved off so the die resembles a brick.

    Hooks where along one edge of the die there is a raised edge.

    and the old weighted die.

    I have a full manual about bent die if you need it.
