@@GeomancerHT Really the major difference between what he's doing here with the discs in the video was actually quite achievable during "ancient" times. The understanding of mechanical engineering was developed enough that we had the capacity to spin large pottery wheels via foot operated mechanisms. This is the same, except the discs are metal or stone and they used softer rocks. Machining the devices was likely not as accurately done as it is today, but the simple concepts were available to the people of the era, and used.

How do you get to hell? Very simple: claim that you're innocent. How do you get to heaven? Very simple: Admit that you're not Innocent, you're guilty and ask for mercy. How to know if you're guilty or not? Simply: Compare your life to the Ten Commandments God gave you in the Bible. Everyone agrees that if people followed the ten commandments there would be no need for governments or police. Do not lie. Do not steal. Do not commit adultery. Do not insult God by using his name as a cuss word. There are six more but let's just leave it at that. How many lies have you told in your life? Have you ever taken anything that didn't belong to you? Jesus said, if you look at a women lustfully you've already committed adultery in your heart with that woman. How many times a day do you do that? Do you use God's name as a cuss word? Would you do that with your own mother's name? If you answer these questions honestly you know that you're guilty. God can justly punish you and send you to hell. Ask him for mercy. His name is Jesus. It's as simple as this, The Ten Commandments are called the moral law. You and I broke God's laws. Jesus paid the fine. The fine is death. Ezekiel 18:20 - "The soul who sins shall die. That's why Jesus had to die on the cross for our sins. This is why God is able to give us Mercy. Option A. You die for your own sins. Option B. Ask for mercy and accept that Jesus died on the cross for you.❤

A shool nowadays doesn't teach you anything. It just shows you that a trade exists and the possible ways that YOU can enter that trade by YOURSELF. And then it's over. No Actual learning involved. It's like going to a library, asking for books of good fantasy authors and having hearing. Clerk: "So, C.S, Luise, Brandon Sanderson, J.R.R Tolkein, & Gorge R r Martin and good fantasy authors". You : "Grate! So with what authors would you recommend starting with?" Clerk: "the one you prefer" You: "But I don't know them. Can show me some of their books?". Clerk: "I'm sorry, sir, but we have no books here. You're supposed supposed by them yourself "

This is so beautiful!

Beautiful. So much work. Well done.

This is the most beautiful D20 I have ever seen, what a stunning achievement. I love the thoughtful patience which which you worked on every aspect of its creation. A privilege to see!

And 200% chance my asshole DM wouldn't allow it to be used because "it might be unfair"

As a gemstone lover (I've wanted to get into lapidary for years, but the starting cost...) and a TTRPG player, this is absolutely stunning. Your hard work and dedication really shows

WOW that was such a Gorgeous D20

You were right. The frosted edges really take it to the next level.

As a D&D player and someone who just respects beautiful creations, I love this! Amazing work!

Does he take commissions? I would really love a set. I don't really play anymore as everyone just lives so far now and it is a pain to find time when we are all available but still... though I do need a lot of different ones as I played WotD, Star Wars, Magus, even a little bit of Middle Earth and Fallout :) Good times...
