Metal Dice

ImaPiranha

I actually made a few metal dice a few years back out of solder, they weren't perfectly balanced or anything but it was mostly a neat proof of concept and something I did just to see if could do. I didn't have anything like the right materials (hence using solder) but they came out okay. I haven't gamed in a while but I'm getting back into it and was looking at picking up some "real" metal dice. I've done some looking and Dwarven Stones seems to be the place to get 'em. I like some of the sets and the style and all that but I've noticed a problem; namely, it does not seem that you can buy individual dice except for a few of the styles having a pack of d6s available. That's all well and good but personally I like my set to have some extra d4s and d8s as well.
does anyone know if or where i might be able to buy individual metal dice as well as sets?

I'd start trolling Kickstarter for contact info of one of the billion companies that have done this in the past year. Most of them are still pretty expensive per a die because they're custom milled from bar/round stock.

Looks like about 6 bucks a die or so. Thanks for the tip. I was looking a actual table-top gaming sites and while some have neat dice, I can't get what I want as far as a set. Kickstarter seems to be the place.

Only thing I can mention is be careful where you use them. Had someone using metal dice at one of my games and he put some indentations into the hosts coffee table. Host was not happy.

I've got a tungsten ring I really like, and had been keeping my eyes open in my Friendly Local Gaming Store for a set of tungsten dice for a while with no luck. Just checked Kickstarter and found some d6s in tungsten! Awesome. $92 for a single die... Not so awesome.

My neighborhood shop sells metal D6 or $2 each. Which surprised me because it seems like they'd go for like $5 or something normally?
