I started to look for a nice dice set that would represent his personality and specialization with the school of illusion. I also wanted something with a very high quality feel. It’s amazing how many different styles of dice are out there, but I could not find exactly what I was looking for. My dad, a hobbyist jeweler, offered to cast a dice in silver. I jumped on the offer and after a few hours of working the mold from a cheep gemstone d20, we cast a solid silver dice. This thing felt amazing, the weight and shine was great but the fact that it was hand made was even cooler. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595775669414-PC5XOKGS2M60RRKJJ59U/First-5-facets.jpg Backstory The silver dice worked for a while but I wanted something more customized to my wizards character. I stumbled onto a post by JessesGems on Imgur that outlined the process for cutting an icosahedron from a gemstone. Completely mesmerized by JessesGems D20 and full of confidence I set out on a quest to make my own gemstone dice. Luckily my dad had a gem faceting machine laying around. He lent it to me with a lot of guff about “this is why I keep everything, you never know when your going to need it”. Equipped with a gem cutting machine and a soft rock from my backyard I started cutting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596246561285-RYN61RMCYIONSWCPJ1T6/perfect-polish.jpg Backstory https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595773610337-VNMC51FMT2U52CSEEZ43/CNC-mill.jpg Backstory I moved on to a mill that I converted to a CNC. The mill worked on a few numbers but I found that it was going to wear out bits too fast. On top of all these challenges the alignment was very difficult and the sound of cutting gems on a CNC machine will make anyone cringe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596247234676-DMWAL83P8CHCAXNP6DD6/Fenway+and+his+D12.jpg Backstory I have completed my quest to make dice for myself and friends. Now I want to make your high quality faceted gemstone dice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595775706045-7AYVMV1PADT9FJ5IADAO/first-icosahedron.jpg Backstory I learned a lot from that little stone. After hours of grinding I had my first stone icosahedron. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595773505257-MXELWR0R91E9FFWXW7LK/first+real+gem+dice Backstory I moved on to harder silica containing stones, again from my backyard. This taught me a lot about grinding laps. I was about 5 hours into the first facet of 20 facets and about to give up. I realized diamond encrusted wheels cut much faster than the silicon carbide sandpaper. After many hours of experimentation I perfected a cutting and polishing technique. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595774808458-6MM02LJOW6XM5QUDBH0X/Modded+K40+laser.jpg Backstory I moved on to a CO2 laser cutter and engraver. This required extensive modifications to work for me. It is my primary tool for carving the numbers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1595773840852-WI143IQY4M6CWPPV7N9X/Half+Orc+Bard Backstory Moonstone started with a desire to craft fun items for my friends. I started painting minis to provide an immersive experience for my friends. I even started modifying minis with green stuff putty to make customized characters. Here is a half orc bard starting his quest to invent rap.

Little did I know, the quest for a custom gemstone dice was just beginning. I would learn that getting the numbers on the dice was the hardest part. I started with a Dremel and a 3D printed pentagraph. This worked but did not have the precision needed for a detailed number that is only 4.5 mm tall. https://hedronrockworks.com/gallery daily 0.75 2023-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611981905921-O4DEX84FYOFHX70JU9VY/DSC03740.JPG Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611981627979-M87UDOXTMOBW41P9U6P7/20201121-DSC07395.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611982307702-8CIZ9L4EXLVNL5OYCH0V/20210115-DSC03243.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611982225547-8IPHJ9KNILA7E3ANVD5R/DSC03284.JPG Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708128418-CEKQQGASP64108RV1RI0/20201122-DSC07438.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611982239216-SWUH2NG3O2CXRU2EWJ51/20201229-DSC01082.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708067539-7LDOVPTKJJ1K7EIG4BUW/Hyppy.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708056190-PQSPNCR6I5ZX07W2A8O2/20201115-DSC07228-HDR.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596664525272-2A8RY091FNSIUZ8M39UX/20200804-DPC_2868.jpg Gallery Blood Bloom / Gemstone: Unakite https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708229608-VQJV9ALJWFWL3EOB7P3Q/20201008-DSC04334.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708110303-XVMAAJ1EYZILOGRM0RTT/20201031-DSC06628.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596163979520-YL7PH6GZQLXMYPS84K3Z/20200719-DPC_2544.jpg Gallery Tindersoul / Gemstone: Petrified wood https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596664523979-HOVLYGMZ7RXXHSD4X913/20200804-DPC_2858.jpg Gallery Welcome to Hell / Gemstone: Pink Granite? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596163976801-7IV0C0F83RI2OK6SGFM2/20200719-DPC_2537.jpg Gallery Forest Fire / Gemstone: Pink Granite? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1597801944796-CWMIVXDEKW7IY16H11Y4/20200818-DPC_3196.jpg Gallery Oghma’s Tear / Gemstone: Kabamba Jasper https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596163985142-0E8J80A99BNFK99OZIUM/20200729-DPC_2584.jpg Gallery Nala / Gemstone: Tigers Eye https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1597787407569-PYFH4TIGHXOEYVASNFQO/20200818-DPC_3185-HDR.jpg Gallery Axebringer / Gemstone: Pinolith https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1597801945642-WNMBC38N4NQY79265C8E/20200818-DPC_3221.jpg Gallery Talan / Gemstone: Sodalite https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1597801945251-8T5HRWACRZWMEJT18UBZ/20200818-DPC_3205.jpg Gallery Yeemik / Gemstone: Lizardite https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708172778-2ZJ37L445000XZEXEAUS/15+purple.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1611981589955-OVPFCB1RFF4U1IF1LK7W/20201231-DSC01386.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708080194-XCDNY1VFG9DJMDD50R75/20200829-DPC_3251-HDR.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708099039-FIOGTXU5OA3U6SMUXP1M/20201001-DSC00276.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1598233655980-G4357K9ODBV8237CSDBM/rose+Quarts.jpg Gallery Gemstone: Rose Quartz https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708129337-IDC2IKAKKC6DRSWOTSEA/20201122-DSC07432.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708143986-8KAC0K33ZO2F49MZUIUS/20200919-DPC_6431.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708179586-FH25GW7ZIPKVY07WLA46/20201017-DSC05617.jpg Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606708201397-TIS244OL8YT5VVFRT4RN/TE+D4.jpg Gallery https://hedronrockworks.com/options daily 0.75 2022-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1606362966765-3Y4FSYWYYWO9JRKB2VIP/D20-Bevel-500.gif Options D20 Bevel This cut maintains sharp edges for a nice tactile feel but adds a few facets for more sparkle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f1b3c67fe442f31256c4097/1596149166234-VQQDXWGQWW39WYNMF73K/D20+Traditional.gif Options - D20 standard $150 D20 standard The standard cut has sharper corners with a great tactile feel.
