Mini Dice Tower

Halfway through building

Made a prototype of a smaller dice tower. Things to note there’s a cut out for the tower to sit in when it’s upright, makes it less like to tip over. Â This piece was made out of leftover scraps hence the odd grooves in places.

I really REALLY wanted to make a folding dice tower but it seems impossible to make one that both folds and hinges in the open position the way I want it and closes the way I want. You can’t get here from there so to speak.

So I made it turtle style which isn’t too bad I suppose. It actually ends up taller turtled than the bigger one because of the wayÂ I had to put it together to make sure that my large casino d6′s would roll well through it.

Also the pegs run at a 90 degree angle compared to the larger ones. With a more production style build I’d stain the tower black and keep the pegs white or viceversa for contrast’s sake.

The idea is a more portable dice tower in case I ever get to make trips to the FLGS to recruit new players (aka steal them from other DM’s. )
