Unpolished set of rpg dice with cherry wood curls in the inserts.

Technically, these are the second set I've done like this. I forgot to take pictures of the first set due to a time crunch.

To make these, I fill my blank insert molds about halfway with clear resin. I then fill them as much as possible with cherry wood curls/shavings. I let them sit a few minutes before topping off with more resin and try to cram some more wood into the mold.

I had attempted this with redwood shavings, but lighter woods are almost transparent once the resin goes into the pressure pot.

This was my 62nd, and sadly final, pull from my favorite mold. It was one of my first molds from Druid Dice.

I try to preserve longevity by cleaning my molds after use (remove all remaining resin), spraying lightly with a mold release, then storing in an airtight bag away from direct light.
