Subject: (OT) Dice - Got a good source?
This may be an odd question, but: Does anyone out there know where I could buy really small d6s (or other dice) in quantity? These are intended to be more or less decorative, so tiny, tiny dice are what I'm looking for. Small enough that they'd be sold on a $/volume or $/mass basis. ---

Try this URL: www.thearmory.com Its not easy to get around, and you may end up calling them, but they have them in bulk quantities! You can probably order them through the Travelling Mage, too. Jeff Hancock mailto: jhancock@pilot.infi.net [quoted original message omitted]

Well, I don't know if you can get 'em outside of UK, but Irregular Miniatures do some nice little dice (about 5mm cubed) for UKP3.50 for 50.

Try ian@iansgames.com he may have them on hand, or can point you to a source.

This may be a bit of an odd way of solving this problem but... I found some REALLY small d6's at a craft supply store in the section for beads. These were maybe 2 or 3mm on a side, and had a small hole through from one corner to another for stringing on a wristlet, necklace or etc. They were otherwise symmetrical, however, and rolled well. They were also quite readable. Just a thought. > On Tue, 20 Oct 1998 22:08:52 -0700, Jim 'Jiji' Foster
