Simple dice cup

thingiverse

Human: (Psst, check the Print Settings section before printing!) I've been designing custom dice lately and I needed a consistent way to roll them when testing designs for fairness. So I designed this dice cup using a modified version of mathgerrl's Customizable Polybowl generator. This design is great because: You can control the thickness of walls and base using your slicer settings. Dice get shuffled really well just from hitting the angled sides. The cup narrows at the top so that your dice are less likely to jump out during shaking. The narrow exit also tends to make the dice hit each other as they exit, making things even more random! If you use this dice cup by holding it vertically and shaking it, you can shuffle 4 dice very efficiently. If you put your hand over the opening and shake it upside-down, you can shuffle up to 10. (The numbered dice in the photo are my d0-5 and d1-6, you can get them here.) Print Settings Infill: NONE, ZERO INFILL Notes: You'll notice that this object is solid, and that's because you're supposed to control its thicknesses in your slicer. Set infill and top layers to 0, and bottom layers and perimeters to whatever you like. You can also enable vase mode if you like. Changelog 26 Mar 2016 Initial release.
