Risky Dice Trays

Ойын-сауық

Dice trays with some style and risk.
Who else likes to play board games? I know I do. It's always a good time spent with family and friends.
I used Sapele and Black Walnut wood, a variety of tools to include a laser engraver, the new Wedge Pro, a table saw, bandsaw, various sanders, and my lathe. So, there's something for everyone in this video.
Please enjoy! I appreciate your time and will look forward to reading your comments!

The dice tray look great and I really like the angled rim and interior and the round edge to the base. It makes the eyes look over the piece. Great video as ever my friend. Take care Rod.

    Nicely done. The only issue with not turning the inside is the glue joint between the sides and bottom. Then again that could be taken care of before the glue dried completely. But it is a dice bowl to “used and abused.” I really like the concept and the actual project. Well done my friend.

    Rod, you know I'm a big fan of your work (and you have commented privately on some of my pieces), but I have to ask something. I'm only part way through the video, at the part where you're hand sanding. So, why wouldn't you have sanded the piece while it was still one long stick? That seems like it would have been much faster and easier. Then you would only have to touch up the joints. OK, finished the video and my thought still holds, at least for the inside. and, since you switch between each cut, that means sanding both sides before you cut it. Also, it's great to see you do a piece that is intended to be used (and probably abused in a heated game) rather than a "piece of art" to be stuck on a shelf. Sometimes what is needed is functionality. The piece still looks good but that's a side benefit, second to usefulness. A great gift. You're such fun to watch and I bet would be a guy who would be great to spend an afternoon on the porch with, shooting the breeze.

  • @RHumphrey

    The sanding was a deliberate choice. I talked about it in the video, a bit. I want to slow things down and enjoy the process. I want the process to mean more than just an end product. Yep, sanding prior would have been easier, but for me personally, at least right now, not the right choice... In the process lies the therapy, through the process the end product is more rewarding. To put in another way, the destination isn't as important as the journey. Thanks, Rob (I still like using my tools though, lol)
