Dice with unbalanced 1mm indents

The shallow indents on the original balanced die made it difficult to paint the dots efficiently and lost visibility after doing ABS acetone vaporsmoothing.

The dice were used as an experiment for cold vaporsmoothing length, temperature, bath volume and acetone saturation to optimize surface quality.

I mostly did the vaporsmoothing outside at 50 F for 30 minutes, then let it rest for an hour. I rotated each one 180 degrees for another 30 minute 50 F cold bath.

Print orientation made the bed-side surface unusually smoother than the others, have sharper edges, and had imperfect gap filling due to the limitations of a 0.4mm nozzle at this scale.

The dice are likely unfair, so I randomized my print and vaporsmoothing orientation. The internal structure should not warp enough during vaporsmoothing to really impact fairness as well without having an overall even surface shape.

The thermochromatic filament I used changes color as you hold the dice in your hand.

Cheap decoart metallic acrylics were applied to the indents. Note that a light touch of THINNED paint made it easy to apply. A thicker "gap filling" resin like traditional dice would look a lot nicer.

This is a lengthy process that not everyone is willing to do.

My settings resulted in die weighing 2 grams where my normal dice weigh 4 grams. It is plenty bouncy and rolls quite nicely, but I'd recommend bumping up the infill.
