I'm a gamer. That means I like to play games. Not all games. I'm partial to games where you have to think, your play makes a difference, you can mess with/entertain the other players, with some type of combat system, and miniatures.
Now a classic tool in gaming are dice. I'ee made quite a few. I made a set for a freind that seems to have bad luck that only have a ! on all the sides. So he's has no stress about the chance that luck might not screw him.
I made a 20 sided die with restarant names on each face so we could decide where to go for dinner. No one ever knows. But you roll a die and put a name in front of them and suddenly they have an opinion.
Here's are my 2 largest 20 sided dice. One is about 14" tall and the other is about 4 foot tall. We have rolled them both in games.
