My daughter and her husband play D&D. I guess a common accessory is a dice tower. The dice tower is nothing more than a fancy way to roll dice.

I want to make them a dice tower. This post is mostly me thinking aloud. Feel free to jump in with suggestions.

Here's the most basic tower:

And some fancier ones:

I haven't done any piercing work but it looks like I'll be headed down that road.

I'm still in the pondering stage on this. One idea I had was to make a tower that looks like the first pic. Then I could turn a cylinder that fits over the tower. Finally, make a staircase out of the cylinder. The tower would have a hole through it so players can drop the dice in the hole or take the staircase route.

I'll post progress along the way, I'm sure there will be a few prototypes headed for the fireplace.
