I've checked into 3d printing. It's one of the options I'm considering for the dice. It's not printing as in paper and ink, as most people think of printing. Rather, it's a process, rather like casting. Essentially, the only ractical difference is that the machine is doing the work. It's basically casting with a tech twist. Anyone wanting to own a mainstream 3d printer would be paying a pretty penny. Maybe this person trying to start with kickstarter was trying to buy one, but that's just not worth it. If I don't go with casting, I'll look into 3d printing as an option, as it'll have to be in bulk to be profitable. That will demand a lot of time and money, but maybe not prohibitively much.
