Dice Tower
I made this for Christmas for my 'adult' son who loves his board games.

Re: Dice Tower
Do you have a sketch, for this . I could make one for my granddaughter. My granddaughter would love one.
Re: Dice Tower
Sorry, I don't have a drawing of this. It's kind of 'throw it at the wall and see what sticks project'. I made a couple of others all pw to try things out before i moved to the cherry.drashop wrote:Do you have a sketch, for this . I could make one for my granddaughter. My granddaughter would love one.
The stock, except for the tray was about 1/2". It was about 10.5" tall. Front to back 5" and side to side 4.5". The angle for the baffles was 30°. Rabbet joint for the 4 corners. The baffles are just glued in place in a shallow dado. I used Titebond Molding glue and held it in place for a few minutes. The tray is 1/4" stock, with finger joints and the bottom of the tray was 1/8" PW.
The tray really needs to be as long as the tower is high, so I'll be making that over.
Hope this helps.
Re: Dice Tower
Thanks, I will start on it today.
