Description

When FDM printing dice with one face on the print bed you get unwanted defects and noticeable differences between the vertical faces and horizontal faces.

These are printed with custom supports to allow you to print on the corners (edge in the case of the D4). This is really helpful for printing multiple dice at once when the printer head may leave the work and for those of us without good bed adhesion.

The D4, D6, D8 and D10 worked out very well, particulatly because every face has the same absolute angle to the build plate. But the D12 and D20 have extreme overhang angles so those faces aren't as nice.

Update:
Added D100
