Simon,

Your dice tower looks incredible! What software and hardware do you use to design and build?
I am new to the forum so if this has been discussed elsewhere, let me know so that I may read the posts.
I hope to one day learn how to do this myself. I have built a few of my own ideas from stiff cardboard and wood but I sure would like to learn how to work with plastics.

Thanks, Kirk

hi kirk, and welcome!
this is actually my first effort entirely from plastic, I usually work in wood but acrylic was the best for this.
it took just over a week of modelling, testing and working out. I then had to draw up the final plans on 2D design, a CAD package. I'm a bit obsessed with minimising wastage so I drew up an arrangement of the parts that came as close to a rectangle as possible. the pieces are then laser cut out. that's the main trick at least, there's a little secret something that needs to be made separately but you'll find out what that is in about a week ;)

Already got a video of dice tower from a fellow called Meo Buchs in France, very surreal to see, its the first time someone else has done one of my tricks!
he also asked for a second set with no colour change.
here are the two clips

Nice try Simon or should I say Meo Buchs!!!

Simon is into anagrams. Take the letters of "Meo Buchs" and rearrange them. What do they spell?

"Jenzo Harmonics"

He has done this before, don't forget Mr. Luf Lirpa.

I hope you are getting help for this.

And now the blurry long distance shot with a microphone in the face and you want us to believe that the superbly talented singer is Simon. Oh Boy!!!

Take the letters "Black Buoy" and rearrange them and what do they spell ???

"Fooled You Again. Si."

Meo Buchs lives in Switzerland and is French-speaking. I don't believe Jenzo Harmonics or Simon speaks French :) I have a personal line with Meo, and write to him in French.

JohnM, you are making us all crazy with your 'complot theories'. But of course you are just joking. :)

Maybe we should all walk with a t-shirt with the words "I am Simon" or "Je suis Jenzo Hamonics" 8-)
