Eric, really good how to. Might curb my young son's enthusiasm for rolling dice across the table. :-)

I like people who use dice trays and still manage to bounce them all over the table.

Neat idea.
If you own an iPad, the box lid has a padded lining, which makes it an ideal dice rolling tray.
If you don't own an iPad, then this isn't much use :-)

Thanks for sharing that. Will save all those 'discussions' about whether the dice have landed fairly.

Nice looking.

But, if you want to go really cheap and easy.

An empty ice cream tub, with a piece of felt in the bottom.

Or the cardboard tray that 4 pack beers come in, from supermarkets, shops etc.

Ah but where is thought that goes into it

Tony5812 Dec 2013 11:56 a.m. PST

Agreed, get that, have a badge

I like to use up junk, that may end up in landfill idea

Each to their own, unless you want to start a war, in the 'Shed' over it wink

I'll be, the soon to invade the UK, Roma gypsies, you can be, the once great nation of Great Britain frown

Oops, I think I might have rolled cocked dice!

Hope this thread doesn't go off, half cocked!

Holding my breath.

By the way, keep up the good work, very inspirational gold star
