Members ReneeCanady Posted November 8, 2013 Members Report Posted November 8, 2013 OMG! That is the cutest thing! I say you turn it into a cup and start drinking mead while your friends are playing. Quote www.facebook.com/alteredleather
Members Radthalan Posted November 9, 2013 Members Report Posted November 9, 2013 What a great idea. It's larger and most likely softer than a regular D4. And if my wife got mad at me it be easier to see as she throws is at my head. DJole that is an awesome cup. You could sell those at any comic shop for a killing Quote Happy leather working ANDY

I have to post the picture of this up because it makes my little geek heart go pitter pat!! Mojo--go for it! We need these to become the Gucci leather accessory of RPG players. There is one modification which Tom made after receiving this: he said that it was too soft, since he had a TON of dice in it. What he did is get a piece of PVC pipe which fit inside as a liner. If I were to build more of these, I'd build them around the PVC pipe (and maybe glue some nice pigskin lining on the inside surface of the PVC. Quote \D.

You could sell those at any comic shop for a killing Well, here in Tacoma we do have the Game Matrix--I never really considered making a set of these for sale. I can see that perhaps I should look into this. I'd have to use a few standard designs (rather than Tom's custom Chinese dragon and runic door inscription on this one.) I either need to perfect my barrel stitch, or else use an alternate method of connecting the sides, before I would sell them. Quote \D.

Members MojoGeorge Posted November 10, 2013 Author Members Report Posted November 10, 2013 D... I have never tried the barrel stitch myself, so what a better way to learn it! I was thinking about building it with the same weights and style as the dice cup in the Leathercraft library video series geo Quote 'Ware the Penguins!

I was thinking about building it with the same weights and style as the dice cup in the Leathercraft library video series geo I don't know what size that dice cup is. The one I made is probably 10 inches high or so (estimated from memory). I used a metal container (which one held gourmet hot chocolate, I believe) to wet-form it around after carving it. The next time I do this, I'll form it around the PVC stiffener. And the barrel stitch--I need to find people more experienced than myself (or maybe a video) to show me what to watch for. Quote \D.

Members MojoGeorge Posted November 20, 2013 Author Members Report Posted November 20, 2013 Leathercraft library has a video of the stitch, I have watched but haven't tried it yet. Quote 'Ware the Penguins!
Members DJole Posted March 13, 2014 Members Report Posted March 13, 2014 I have a new piece of work--it's another dice box. This one is built around a clear plastic box. Quote \D. Jole \ --> <http://djole.altervista.org/djole/Publications/Leather/Lindex.htm>
Members MojoGeorge Posted March 14, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 14, 2014 Looks great! I will post some picks this weekend of a new dicebox and rolling tray built as a leather bound book Looks great! Quote 'Ware the Penguins!
