Alternatively, you can use a matte Mod Podge if you prefer a matte finish. IвЂ™ve clear coated the stained and blue dice in the picture with glossy Mod Podge. Once the paint has dried, clear coat the dice for added protection. For this set I chose to paint the dots white. I have made other dice sets blue, black and red but for this set, I chose to stain the dice a deep brown.Д¬arefully paint the dice dots. This is the fun part! Play with colours and pick something that will stand out against the green grass. The smoother, the better! You wonвЂ™t want wooden slivers in your hands from throwing the dice. You may want to sand the dice dots as well with normal sandpaper. With an electric sander, sand all faces and edges of the dice. Anything that will slightly indent the wood will work.

DonвЂ™t go too deep just enough to see that there is an indent. Using a Вѕ cove bit and a drill press, drill the dice dots to create small indents in the wood. For example 3 dots on one side and 4 dots on the opposite side. When drawing the dots on my dice, I made sure each opposite side added up to 7. There is a correct way to position the dots on the dice, IвЂ™m just not 100% sure what that is. I prefer smooth edges so they donвЂ™t feel as sharp when IвЂ™m throwing the dice around.ДЇreehand draw or create a stencil to draw the dots on your dice. The rounded edge size is totally up to you and your personal preference. You should end up with slightly round, smoother edges. Take each dice and router the sharp edges.

Keep in mind, you will be throwing them around so eventually, they will get cracked or scratched. If you have any scrap 4Г—4вЂ™s lying around from another project, now is the time to use them! It doesnвЂ™t matter if the wood is dented or cracked because the paint covers everything nicely. Only 5 dice are needed to play Yardzee, but you will need 6 to play Yarkle. My 4Г—4вЂ™s height was about 3.75вЂќ so that determined my width to be 3.75вЂќ as well. Not every 4Г—4 is exactly 4вЂќ, so itвЂ™s important to measure your height to determine how big your width will need to be in order for them to be somewhat perfect blocks (dice).
