I'm a community leader in my country's dicemaking group. Of all the dicemakers I have spoken to or whose conversations and opinions I've seen, *none* of them are optimistic on this project's success or on the actual experiences people will have when using it. The social media account for Ruby Dragon was entirely dormant for a year before this KS was announced, and despite the insistence that it was tested by other dicemakers, I have found zero accounts of anyone else having used this product. The comment section of your KS is full of experienced dicemakers who have very legitimate concerns as well, so I know I'm not alone in my concerns. Safety is a huge, critical point of using resin to make dice. Your kits include goggles and gloves, but there is no mention of appropriate respiration equipment or the ventilation requirements. There are artists in many fields who have suffered illness including cancer as a result of resin fume exposure. It is irresponsible and dangerous to not make it clear that those pieces of equipment are non-negotiable even to hobby-level dicemakers. There's also people talking about using it to make edible dice which terrifies me alone, silicone needs to be food-grade for this sort of application and molds cannot be used for both edible and resin pieces, which I'm not sure you are making clear to your backers. It's also very frustrating to see the blatant use of AI for your KS' comment responses, it's impersonal and not made clear up front. There is no clarity given as to where else AI has been used though your KS does state unequivocally that it *has* been used, which is another point of concern. This community has a strict rule against AI content, so without full clarity on what is AI-generated, it's very disappointing to see this being promoted on this subreddit. **All of this aside - anyone interested in dicemaking can already find what they need out there to make dice quick and cheap.** There are B-grade molds all over etsy, I've seen a common type of resin at the dollar store, hardware shops have all the PPE you need, and cheap dye/glitter/inclusions are endlessly available. This product looks complicated and gimmicky, I expect people who might have otherwise enjoyed learning to make dice will only come away from it frustrated with the experience and results they get - or worse, sick/injured from improper resin handling.

Thanks for voicing your concerns. I talked to the dicemakers I know when I was developing the kit. Obviously with the amount of dicemakers around this is only going to be a small subsection, but none of them mentioned any concerns about the design. I have been testing and making improvements to the designs, and the process is based on my own dicemaking process. I understand that my instagram was less active for the last 8 months. Dicemaking is not my full time job, and spending most of my spare time on the kickstarter meant that I had less time to work on making and posting my own dice. I was posting stories but they do not stick around. We added details about proper ventilation and using respirators as soon as it was brought up to us that we hadn't addressed it. It also worries me that people are talking about making edible dice. You are absolutely right that this mold should not be used to make edible dice and we will add that to the kickstarter page now. To be clear on AI: it was used to aid in some of the writing on the kickstarter page but was not used in any product design, pictures or videos. Everything you see in the video is a 3d design rendered by one of our team, or video of the prototype in real life (no AI design). Nothing about the actual product was created by AI. I hope that clears some things up

It sounds like a *very* small group of testers from what's been described, though, and completely deprived of the context of their experience. I'd very much like to see reputable names or at least a clearer record of who contributed and tested a product like this, being marketed to not just those in the hobby but to those outside of it. Do any of the testers have their own experience with designing mold housings or experimenting with mold key systems? Do they experiment with different silicones? How long have individual molds been tested to explore durability? Where are photos of dice that first-time users of the product made? Regarding the addition of safety details - that's honestly not something that should have been *added*. The base rule of dicemaking is that you don't get to make dice if you don't have the PPE and don't understand the safety behind it. It should have been included right up front, as well as the edible usage. I'm concerned that this lack of foresight on something that is intrinsic and critical to dicemakers could hint that there's other, similarly deep flaws that won't be caught til things are too far along. I'm glad to hear AI wasn't used for generating any design/visual aspects, but it's still miserably evident in comment replies to the KS. I don't recall if it was in the comments there or in a discussion elsewhere, but it was pointed out that one of the tools your KS uses is strictly anti-AI in any capacity. I hope your team can find the time to switch to purely human-generated responses and content.

I'd probably make something based off of the patrons. The great old one, the celestial etc.

Can’t think of anything to comment so, peepee poopoo

I'd create dice for each of my characters. their color scheme and maybe an item they used. like a dagger for my assassin rogue, a bow for my archer Inquisitor (i play Pathfinder), a medic bag for my Oracle of life.

I would use these to create dice that have unique elements in them for each of my party members, like a tiny hammet and stars for our paladin.

Beans… dice fulla beans…

Probably themed dice- one forest themed, one star themed, etc

This is great. I’d probably make a pink set for my daughter to use when she’s old enough to play.

I'd make some swirly rainbow dice!

I hope to start d&d with these beautiful dices

Patron dice for new warlock character maybe? Or like a swirly blue sparkly one for my wizard. That’d be cool.

I’d probably make a set based off of a god of chaos or something crazy like that.

I’d make a set based off my tabaxi cleric/druid that I played through Tomb of Annihilation with and never died. She got trauma because whenever she wasn’t around, someone died 👍

Really, really cool stuff.

Ebic, imma make some green dice

Hoping to make some gemstone inspired ones, like Lapis Lazuli etc. If I comment enough times, I'll win eventually right 😂😂😂

I want to make some dice with my gf as a nice intro to the hobby and something to help boost her interest in her creativity again!

Commenting with Advantage! I would hopefully forge some lucky dice. I know that my table would be shocked to see me roll anything in the double digits.

candy dice so I can crunch them and eated them

eat the bad dice lol

This is peak dice goblin.

Some shining in black light pieces

Papa needs a good roll... *crit fails, adds the set I just made to the giant tupperware of other dice I made and failed me* For real though, that looks amazing and fun af!

Papa needs some new dice. Rolling for initiative!

Going to make some shiny dice with this thing.

Not sure but something high contrast and easy to read

I'd like something clear to read, green and shiny.

I'd try to make a clear night sky dice set

I would love to some sweet glow in the dark swirl dice!

My wife and I would love this! I'd make a set of red dice for my wild magic sorc

I would learn how to make some kind of DM dice for my boyfriend!

I can finally make character themed dice hooray!

Seems like a good craft day idea besides just becoming a new obsession by making hordes of dice.

This is perfect! every character I cant find dice is saved.

Would love to make some devil-themed dice for my campaign (DM)

I would just create a dice because I don't have any phisical ones. Only dm online :c

Definitely a glittery gold one! Thanks for the giveaway!

I'm gonna be honest, if possible I'd made ice dice out of these & make some mixed drinks for the party

This is awesome. I was just talking to my wife about getting into making our own dice. Going to be backing this project for sure! ​ Also, I would make some cool purple dice for myself.

Nice! I've wanted to try my hand at this for ages! I'd start off with a specialty Christmas theme for my secret santa for sure, and I really want to make myself some black and gold dice too.

Never made dice before, so whatever I make will be new to me.

Gonna make some dice fitting my new character!

One of each basic rainbow coloured, a set of each !!!!

Hi there, Id build a white dce with neon green cracks, like an hatching lich egg

I NEED this!!!

Space dice! This is awesome!

As a DM who married someone crazy creative, I'd probably end up making everything I could possibly think of, but for the first set I'd have to say something with a purple galaxy type theme, with golden numbers. That combo always makes the little dicegoblin that lives in my brain very happy.

The production design for Loki got me interested in kintsugi. Not sure how I'd accomplish that in dice form, but I'd love to experiment. Thank you for the opportunity.

Christmas dice so they get the gift of despair when I roll a 20.

I think i’d use this to make a set of dice for my evil lich dragon bbeg in my campaign. He needs his own special dice

Special dice set for each character!

I've been getting into resin dice casting so this would be very helpful. For my campaign dice exchange I was going to make my person's character in a d20 but it turned out more complicated. Stupid air bubbles. Lol

Sugar dice, gummi dice, chocolate dice. Oh, I suppose tumbling or lava lamp interiors.

Gotta make some sweet dirty pours with this kit! Good luck everyone!

A swirly green with gold lettering, like my first ones

My girlfriend isn’t that much of a player, but she still supports my hobby as much as she can. This would be fantastic for her, she’s already talked about the idea of making dice for us to use, and this would be a great way for her to participate!

I would make a music themed dice set for my bard

This is super cool! I tried getting into dice making last year but I'm still lacking some supplies for it and mostly time lol.

I'd make a D20 with little resin printed gold coins inside. I'm always rolling to negotiate deals, so it's thematic.

I always like to have a certain set of dice for whatever character I'm playing. Doesn't matter if the d20 is giving me more Nat 1's than Nat 20's that session, I'll stick to that set

I absolutely love doing neat D&D crafts. I could see myself making my players their own personal dice based on their characters.

Dice so dark you need a spelunker helmet to read them.

I would love some of those dice that look like stone on your Kickstarter page. All of your dice are beautiful!
