Savage - Dice Rolling Box

It occurs to me that I had images dated to the 6th of November but forgot to make this post until now (as yesterday a friend expressed interest in buying one based off of the dry-assembled version I had out).

This is a dice rolling box for board games and pen & paper roleplaying games. Dice go in the top, tumble down the inside flaps, and roll out into the drawer at the bottom. This fairly rolls the dice without the possibility of cheating. Unfortunately, I made the flaps a bit long and haven't cut them down yet, so dice get stuck between them, as you can see below.

 

The images on the front and back were inspired by heroic fantasy, as games like Dungeons & Dragons are where dice rolling boxes are primarily used. The front shows a knight fighting a dragon, with depth given by the drawer in its extended position. The rear shows the fire left by the dragon's breath. The other sides show five of the different kinds of dice used in D&D, displaying the purpose of the box.

Reference used for dragon 

The decals on the sides were drawn (admittedly poorly) on paper and scanned. After this, I used Inkscape's bitmap trace and converted that to an Illustrator file [using Illustrator's bitmap trace, I couldn't generate curves] for import into Rhino. Once in Rhino, I drew over the scan curves again using Rhino's curves to get a lower-detail version suitable for laser engraving.

Update 2015-12-14:
Had the box re-cut to actually allow dice to roll (whoops). Unfortunately, the stain came out far darker than I would have liked on the MDF, but the designs are still somewhat distinguishable. Pretty decent for a second prototype, needs some more engineering work done since dice tend to get stuck on the last (less steep) rolling panel.
