    You should look into putting pin holes on the side that can be slipped into, instead of sitting them on the top of the housing. It would look nicer as well as be more stable.

      That's a nice idea, the only issue is that having the pins separate from the button is already a difficult problem and if I were to move them further down, it would exacerbate the problem... I might try one prototype out though.

      @@MoreToolsThanSense might work if you put a pivot (or a catch) higher than the button, making pin farther away retract properly.
      having a fulcrum higher than the button means you don't have to press as much to make the pins travel further.

      @@MoreToolsThanSense They don't need to be separate. Just make two holes or recesses on each side on the inside of the tower base. It will add additional rigidity to the tower when it's extended. Literally no mod to the tower - just some little recesses in the base for them to click into instead of loosely resting on top of the base.

      I'm a physically disabled DnD player and am amazed by those towers. Rolling dices is a struggle for me, so I resorted to digital rolling. But seeing this, I think I could roll dices with it!
      Is there any way to get templates of the dice tower? I would only need the inside "box", where you throw the dice in and it rolls the dice.

    Use your laser to cut a template for creating a hole in the table. Hog out the majority of the hole with a jigsaw, and clean up with a router and flush trim bit for a perfect square. Well except for the corners which you can clean up with a chisel or just make your design have a rounded corner that matches the diameter of the flush trim bit.

    This is a great project! Looks good, fun idea, all in all a project which I might pick up myself one day.
    One thing I would change over the current design is for most pop-up things I'd probably use magnets instead of some pin mechanism. this allows for some fluidity in the movement and it also be easier to engineer a bracket to mount magnets on rather than a pin mechanism like this, which would require many prototypes before you get it right (like what happened here). also the magnets might be easier to hide than a pin mechanism, so you dont have to worry about designing for example a pop-up tower around one prop.

    This and the original video are sick and I love them not to mention how much I wish I had a table even close to this.
    That said I’ll also offer one criticism as well from the TTRPG side of things. It’s said that to be a properly randomized roll from a dice tower your dice needs to have at least 3 contact points with the inside of the tower. Otherwise your rolls are lacking in randomness. If I were to buy a tower like this personally that’s definitely something that I’d not only be looking for but would be a dealbreaker for me. If you look into towers online you’ll find the good ones always try to include 3+ platforms for dice to roll off of. Obviously it might be a bit difficult to include this in your table ones but if you’re selling these out and about I’d suggest making a larger sized one for sale maybe? That way folks have an option of how randomized they want to get.

    A few modifications to the alignment base would make a difference. At the top of the alignment base, cut sunken wells for the flex stop pins to rest in, so that the tower stays still in the center and the pins are hidden. You could also cut tracks into the walls of the alignment base for rounded flex stop pins to ride in, making a smoother movement.

    I would have used that pop top as a cover for the hole, when pulled up it will display whatever emblem I put on there as well as reveal the hole to drop the dice down. I'd do this to either forgo or simplify the dice tray at the bottom. If I kept it, it would just be a cover that pivots up or down when the tower is down or up.
    As for locking when up, I'd just use some flat pieces with triangular extrusions that pop out slightly when the walls aren't there. Might have been slightly simpler than the button with the dots.

    Very neat finish and not at all the mechanism I would have used, which just goes to show there are many ways to a similar result.
    For myself I'd rather there wasn't a ring pull but a rotational lock - that ring pull drops enough that small based and heavy enough objects will just fall over and if you ever run a pen and paper over the top you will have a bad time. Where the rotational lock concept can have a flush finish and be a nearly perfectly smooth table top (if you care to put in the machinist time and skill to hit really tight sliding fits even an invisibly smooth finish to the insert (though that is excessive)).

For the glue, I wonder why you're using E6000 which is very flexible glue. For this I believe you'd want a chemical welding glue. Given the likely overall investment for this, I'd also go for plastic threaded inserts.

    Why not use threaded wood inserts to mate with bolts instead of screws?

    For SLA printing you shouldn't be printing your objects directly to the build plate. IIRC first few layers are overexposed to ensure they stick to the build plate. I forget if a raft or just supports is the better option.
    Resin is also weaker than PLA in stress tests

      True, you're not really supposed to stick it right on the build plate... but with an absolute square of an object, it's nearly impossible to get a nice finish on all 6 flat surfaces any other way. Also, I use tenacious additive to the resin, you can bend a 5mm thick piece nearly in half before it snaps, It's passing all of my stress tests!
