I recently made a dice box for my brother. I got a woodworking tool kit from my folks for Christmas, and I used it to carve runes and staves into a wooden box, stained and aged it, and added a green felt lining inside. It's viking themed with a symbol that represents Thor. I didn't have any dice to put in it, but I did put some world coins, a silver dime, and some semi-precious stones in the box so it wouldn't be empty
I never would have though to bake the clay on the box because I assumed the wood would burn/toast. Now that I know this works there are so many things I want to make. Thanks for the great video!
Don't know if you will see this as this video is about a year old, but what do you need to bake this? I assume an oven but am not sure if you need any specific things for baking clay.
This is one of my favorite projects of yours. It has so much freaking realistic character! I think if I made this myself, I would add a layer of clay inside and create a tray for dice using their imprints.
Love this. You really channeled both Mike Wazowski and Sully with the colours and single eye. Tempted to try design something like this with a homemade box. Does it have any small inside to keep it closed
Thanks! I was originally going to add a magnet to keep it closed but the teeth actually touch just enough to keep it pretty tight with friction! I lucked out on that one😁
I'm making a mini version of this, and honestly the entire process has been hilarious because i used a googly eye😂 i'm gonna paint over it in the end, but until then it's just too funny
Yo Skill tree, I’m still loving these videos your making especially the D&D stuff, idk if you read the story I sent you about my campaign but I’m guessing you were probably busy Also I had an idea for the Druid Book Cover, I know how you like to use Leather.. but how do you feel about Leather that still has a pelt on it? You know because Druids can change into animals… ooo ooo or make the leather look and feel like bark with Vines and moss growing on it?
I did read that! I thought I answered you, tho, it has been a little crazy over here so forgive me if I spaced it! Also, you are READING MY MIND with the druid book. I was thinking about doing the vine and bark kind of deal but I DO like the fur idea as well and just so happen to have a bunch of rabbit pelts😁
@@SkillTree lol oooo rabbit pelts sounds pretty good, lol when I read that I was thinking “Rabbit foot bookmark” however since the Druids refuse to use any Metal it would be a little interesting… or replace the rabbit foot idea with a Resin Crystal Oh wait… use the Crystal for Wizard and do it like your magic wand, like the glow in the dark resin, lol now I’m super excited to see what your going to do
@@SkillTree oh and sorry to not add to my message I don’t mind you being busy, this past week I have been helping my Mother weeding venal for 528 sweaters
Huh at least the Wizard now has a way to keep his books arcane or 'the good kind' away from the Rogue who keeps stealing them "Finally with Marvin at my side that shithead Rogue will stop stealing my spellbooks and smut, now all I need to do is just give my marvelous mimic some finishing touches. Then the Artificer and I can work on that repeating crossbow he's been wanting my help with."
Omg i made something similar for my leather working tools but sadly all the clay cracked and fell apart 😢 💔 😭 I have to get better clay but I'm broke lol spent my money on new leather working stuff to make my cosplay armor that I have to finish buying and building
The struggle is REAL! Honestly, were it not for my Patreon members, I couldn't afford half of these materials! Keep trucking along though! I would love to see what you create!

When you first put the eye on it and didn’t have the ridges around it, it looked cute and cuddly…

It's fun watching you pick up more skills in the polymer clay sculpting!
Great sculpt... you might want o try something like Green Stuff instead of Sculpy though... It's WAY less brittle. Will give the box more longevity.
The first time a mimic ambushed me playing Fate I nearly crapped my britches. Creepy little buggers!
His name is Charlie and I love him. Lil Charlie Chomper
OM NOM NOM NOM
You legally have to name this little guy now, I propose the name Pistachio, but that's just a suggestion
AWESOME PROJECT!!! I saw one on Amazon but was hesitant to purchase, so thanks for the video
Now you can make your own! Totally worth trying😁
I LOVE your channel. SUPER underrated, this build is soooo cool
how about a pouch mimic for those daring adventurer with a daring pet?
I don't need one, but I'm probably gonna make one. Looks super fun!
Don't know if you will see this as this video is about a year old, but what do you need to bake this? I assume an oven but am not sure if you need any specific things for baking clay.
Fantastic idea, this came out so amazing
Thanks! It was such a cool build for me and I am very pleased with the result!

Cool idea! Maybe I will add that to this lil guy. Paint it to look like a tongue 😁
@@SkillTree Yusss! Just what I was thinking!
Brilliant work!
Mimic+Transformer=Mimicsformer
You never cease to amaze. Keep up the awesome work can't wait to see your next build!
Very very cool:) I made one a little bit back too. His name is Grinevere.
Lol.
He holds some of my filming equipment.
Mimics are awesome:)

Are you using a house oven or kiln oven?
Just a regular oven. It only takes 275F to getvthe job done with super sculpey!

I love how nerdy this is XD
Lol! Thanks! I love being this nerdy!
@@SkillTree awesome! That's why yours is one of my favorite UA-cam channels. Perfect mix of nerdiness and creativity (and skill) ;)
❤❤❤ That means a lot! Thank you so much for watching!
Thats so cool....love the teeths....nom nom nom
Is my bite box and he is HUNGRY!
Because of the memes, i forgot that Mike has ONE eye
🤣 I know, right!?
wait I rolled high enough to detect it. What do you mean my modifier doesn't apply. Are you changing the roles again?
Love your videos, as always!
