Summary

Please see Cassiopeia Dice on YouTube for how-to instructions and the inspiration for this mold: https://youtu.be/MFDWmH98qE4?si=nBNUVadBOXUcIwV-

Rybonator is also a good resource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BDVUe5osUM

Shell 1 and 2 are attached together on a flat surface with 1/4" Machine Screws or Bolts. They are slightly different so the silicone mold will only go together one way when complete. I used a large file to knock any peaks off the mating surfaces so they clamp together closely. The included "knob" can be used but the treads will likely require chasing with a tap. Otherwise a regular nut can be used.

Place assembled shells with indents down onto a sheet of Cricut transfer paper. Stick Master dice onto it and pour your silicone over dice to make the bottom. Cure in pressure pot ensuring that it is perfectly level, then remove from mold. I used PETG and the silicone did not stick to the mold.

Coat the bottom part of the mold in a release agent, then clamp back into the now upside down mold. Pour the lid and cure in the pressure pot.

Bottom uses approx 230ml (8 US oz) of silicone with a standard set of 7 dice
Top Lid uses approx 130ml (4.5 US oz) of silicone
