Nice, those look really good. If I could make a suggestion though? Round off your corners a bit, especially the d4/d6 will feel uncomfortable to roll 'til they wear off naturally.

That’s a preference thing, I like them sharp enough to cause injury. I’m also not exactly dexterous enough to get an even rounding of the corners and it would drive me crazy to have them uneven. I do appreciate the feedback though.

Aesthetically I agree, though I will say I'd hate to be in the situation where that D4 ever lands on a wet surface because I can just see it locking in with the adhesion and having no point from which to pry it off.

I’ve trained my fingers like the guy in Kung POW.

That’s a bit of a stretch scenario, I don’t know many people who play around wet stuff and it’s easy enough to just tip over because the other points are weak points for adhesion. Just put a finger against one edge and tilt it.

I am glad you thought of the exact image I was picturing in my mind!

for science I tried it out. I put a few drops on a table at the bar and plopped one of my weaponized D4s on it. It was simple to pick up and only stuck slightly but was easy to lift no matter how long I left it, pressed on it, or spun it around.
