Right-Left-Center Dice

thingiverse

I was recently introduced to the game of Right-Left-Center and decided to design my own dice. There are versions of the game where taking a drink is one of the 6 options as well as skipping a turn and no action. I originally made a single unit die that had the “R”, “L”, “C”, “O”, “O”, “O” molded in but the backgrounds would need to be painted to be able to read the die across the table. I then thought it would be even better to make a “blank” die and inserts that could be color coded and arranged in any desired order and possibly customize the die for other games. I then made a hollow version of the blank die that makes the die lighter or easier to “load”, although since every player uses the same die, I don't see any reason to do so. I have not tried it yet, but sealing a couple of loose 10mm ball bearings inside the hollow die might be interesting. I have included STL files for the original fixed die, the blank die, the hollow blank die and a number of insert panels including “R”, “L”, “C”, “O”, “X”, “D”, “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, conventional “dots ” and blank. You can print the die and inserts in any colors that suit your use, but using different colors for each panel will make the die readable from across the table. There are a number of adhesives that can be used to glue the inserts to the die, but my favorite is Super Glue Fix-All Gel in a tube that I get at Dollar Tree. The die is 1.5” (38.1mm) but can be scaled in your slicer as desired. The small die in the picture are scaled 80%, 50% and 33% I have included removable supports and pads on the hollow die to improve bed adhesion.
