Scrapping the chocolate
Seems at this point, at least for the holidays, I am abandoning the plans to mold chocolate dice. Although I still have my template ready, once I found that the silicon had expired, I simply have not found an economical replacement option. Most suppliers are fairly expensive, especially for the volume I will need for…
Age of Ashes, episode 8
Latest episode is now available for our Age of Ashes campaign. This one is a bit truncated, partially due to scheduling conflicts due to the holiday, and partially due to character leveling. However, for the game time we did get in, the group was notably more efficient and fast moving. In this episode, the group…

Home again, after another week of travel, and ready for the next couple of weeks and the holidays. Finalizing the shopping this weekend and next, in between our gaming schedule. This Sunday we have our next episode of the Age of Ashes, which should give me plenty to work on. Over the actual break, I…

In the midst of another business trip, this time rather heavily occupied with work (compared the typical slow schedule), so minimal time for updates and news.

On Friday, I attempted to craft the molds for the chocolate dice, and found that the material had gone most definitely bad. In my case, I was going to be using Oomoo 30,…

Chocolate Mold
—
by
Inspired by some videos I saw online, I am trying out my skill at creating chocolate dice. Step one, find a bunch of old dice, and create a mold. From here, I can cast the set in food-safe silicon, and then create a negative to eventually fill with chocolate. A bit of time in the…
Watchtower, 3rd floor
After several weeks, I have completed the 3rd floor of the Watchtower project – at least the printing stage. Once I am able to print the roof section, then I will be disassembling everything for painting, before re-assembling and gluing the pieces. The design is supposed to be modular sections – different pieces that lock…
