About
Turn a block of cedar into an 14-sided die that you can use to figure out probability, play games, or do math quizzes, depending on how you decorate it.
Starting with a cube 3 1/2 inches on each side, you'll measure and mark the angles, then clamp the block to a jig and make all the necessary cuts. In the process, you'll learn tips about using a combination square and a Japanese-style hand saw and the value of a jig.
After you cut and sand your die, you'll be able to embellish it with numbers, symbols, or whatever you desire, using pyrography (burning in a design with a pen-like device that has a hot tip) or paint.
