D10 Sphere for Percentages
Truncated Sphere D10, numbered from 00 to 90. Used with a regular D10, it allows you to get random numbers from 00 to 99 (percentages).
This die is also part of the Truncated Sphere Dice Set.

Sorry, I do not customize products anymore...
This is Rounded D6 Die of 20 mm (it is bigger than regular dice that are generally 16 or 18 mm).
It is hollowed (2mm shell) but still contain the "support material", keeping it relatively heavy.
Opposite faces sum to 7 (well, except for the blank die). You can choose between a blank die, two numerical dice (standard and roman numbers) and two dice with pips (regular arrangement or arranged in circles).
A video tutorial explains how to do them with 3DS Max. You can also check this post.
To buy all the six versions with a discount, check the All round D6 page.

This is another member of the Average Dice family.
You have to make the average of 3 faces of the inner cube (sharing a common vertex pointing upside) to find the result of the D8.
For instance, in the image, as 1+7+13=21 and 21/3=7 the result would be 7.

Alternative Truncated Sphere D8
This is another solution for the Truncated Sphere D8, different from the one based on a regular octahedron.
This die is inspired by the repulsion force polyhedra. In fact, the underlying polyhedron (not rounded) is a trapezohedron. It looks like the shape that can be obtained through this technique with 8 points repulsing each others.
But in this case, I calculated the positions of those points to have a maximal radius for the circles resulting from the intersection of this underlying polyhedron with a sphere. The result is a truncated sphere with 8 circular faces of same radius.
This die is made of a shell of 1.5mm that contains support material to make it heavier. The engraved numbers have a 0.75 mm depth.

D10 with a 4-fold symmetry.
I did this one before knowing about the repulsion force polyhedra, although the shape is the one of the typical result you can obtain through this technique with 10 points : the dual polyhedron has 2 squares and 8 irregular pentagons. I calculated the positions of those points to have a maximal radius for the circles resulting from the intersection of this dual polyhedron with a sphere. The result is a truncated sphere with 10 circular faces of same radius.
It is numbered from 0 to 9. Only 2 faces are opposite one to the other and can hold numbers. The others have edges as opposite, thus the numbers on 8 edges.
This die has an approximate diameter of 24mm and is made of a shell of 1.5mm that contains support material to make it heavier. The engraved numbers have a 0.7 mm depth.
More informations in this post.
The current version has deeper numbers compared to the ones in the pictures (0.7 instead of 0.5 mm).

Repulsive Force Polyhedra Duals
Repulsive Force Polyhedra are obtained by putting a certain number of points in a sphere and making them repulse each other: they stabilize in a certain position where each point is the vertex of a polyhedra. Here I represented the dual of such polyhedron that is each vertex is replaced by a face, for 8, 9, 10, 17, and 32 points. This gives, in my opinion, a more aesthetical result.
Moreover, these shapes are the underlying polyhedra behing the following truncated sphere dice:
Alt D8, 4-fold D10, D9, D17, D32.

D6 Tiles Cage
The faces have bars that divide them in a certain number of holes.
To get the result of this die, just count the number of holes between the bars on the upper face.
This die is quite big (3 x 3 x 3 cm) and the wire is 3 mm so that it should be printable in Metal.
Note that, due to its structure, this die is far from being fair (1 is more likely than 6).

This is a big die based on a regular D12 (a Dodecahedron) where you can insert a US Quarter coin on each face.
The goal is to have 12 quarters from different states and thus to select a state by throwing the die (perhaps to choose a travel destination).
A version for 1 euro coins is also available: DodEuro.
