A sabacc friend is making a new dice game based on his own culture.
I’m helping.
The concept is chinese hoo-how-hey or fish/prawn/crab. Apparently its the same but named different in a few asian cultures.
These have star wars critters and droids instead.
Just fun project for a friend

I been busy making swarzy stuff out of prescription pill bottles, and LED pucks.
The red ones are refined strontium because that’s a thing.
The orange ones are still figuring out what they might be. But they’re done.

Designers from the Andor show posted pics of stuff they designed. Among them were Luthen’s identicard and variant identities.
I’ve managed a fairly faithful replication for my own SW character.
Btw, BBY0 is 0-4 years off imperial year 7977 based on Luthen’s IDs and actor’s age

Managed to get some crafting done despite working a good chunk of the weekend.
The local sabacc group wants RDID cards to check in to the cantina based on the prop pics of Luthen’s various identicards.
So i worked out a prototype on cardboard using my laser engraver

Another early start in the shop. Made a fancy design for the initiative tracker, left side engraved (42minutes). Right side is in the machine.
Which style do you like better?

Here is the left + right side prototype. Ends would be trimmed to make slots even, and a hing in the middle.
I also found one more piece of scrap wood in the size i need. So i’ve 3 pairs, the first being the misburned prototype pieces.
I might be able to salvage the prototype for a third tracker

Laser at work on left side prototype of initiative tracker.
As two hinged pieces, it will have 24 numbered slots (printed right side and upside down along opposite edge).
Place your token on your initiative number and we’ll quickly sort out turn order for an encounter

I made a mini for my new warlock d&d character. A scholar turned adventurer.
Slight mistake in heroforge as i forgot to recolor the sleeves before ordering it. But looks pretty cool.
