Carbon Fiber was originally created in the late 1800’s by Thomas Edison for use in his newfangled incandescent light bulbs. Fast forward a hundred off years later and it’s now used to make the finest dice on the planet. These dice are crafted from forged carbon fiber much like that found in a modern Lamborghini

2-carbon-fiber-stormtrooper-helmet The classic hi-tech material, Carbon Fiber has been used in everything from modern fighter jets to Formula 1 race cars and Storm Trooper Suits (pretty sure it makes a better armor than that blaster magnetic called plastoid) Carbon Fiber was originally created in the late 1800’s by Thomas Edison for use in his newfangled incandescent light bulbs. Edison baked cotton and bamboo fibers at high heat in an oven with a controlled atmosphere devoid of oxygen using a process called pyrolysis.   How-is-it-made-pageThese days carbon fiber is manufactured using a similar process, but instead of using cotton or bamboo as the starting material (also called the precursor) a blend of Rayon and polyacrylonitrile is used. By heating the precursor in an atmosphere devoid of oxygen, it does not burn. Instead, the precursor starts a jammin’ a Caribbean beat until all of its molecules form one crazy conga and begin to dance and shake. They party all night long until every atom has passed out and fell off the conga line, except for those Carbon atoms. They’re party animals. Carbon keeps the party rocking until somewhere around 5,500 degrees Fahrenheit. When it cools, you get a crazy strong fiber made from what is now basically pure carbon fiber. Who knew conga lines could science? In most cases those carbon fibers are then woven into a fabric and hand laid into a mold using a process very similar to laying fiber glass, only there’s a vacuum and a rather large oven at the end that is used to cure the resin impregnated fabric. The end result is a super hard shell like our friendly looking Storm Trooper helmet pictured above. The downside to all this awesome is that it’s insanely expensive. As to exactly why that is, check out this article on gizmodo. In our case, a carbon fabric would not work as we are looking for a solid dice, not just a thin light weight shell. That means we had to find a carbon fiber manufacturing process that produces a solid part.

Fear not my friends, for through some magical wizardry I don’t even pretend to comprehend, a very small number of manufactures, have begun to produce solid meaty chunks of carbon fiber. These solid billets give birth to our dice, a process that involves the slaughter of many poor unsuspecting tungsten carbide endmills. Turns out carbon fiber is stupid amounts of abrasive and it loves to eat tungsten carbide like a fat kid loves cake.

Once machined, these dice are hand sanded all the way down to a 9 micron on each face then polished on our buffing wheels to a silky smooth finish. The carbon fiber is left bare and then laser engraved, giving us that sinister black on black effect.

    Took longer than expected to get my order for these squared away, but I can definitely recommend them to anyone if they go back into production. They look fantastic! Polished up they are a darker black than in the attached pics, but after putting them to use, I think they actually look better than advertised.

    Make sure you verify availability of the acrylic cases if that’s a selling point for you – seems like the guys are not making them anymore.

  41. Kevin

    I really want a set, for durability and light weight. However the prices are extra orbital high.
    Since carbon is one of the most common elements in the universe after hydrogen, why is it so expensive?

    • Ben

      This was covered up above. Carbon fiber anything is expensive, filament wound carbon fiber manufactured into a cylinder, then milled into dice and laser engraved probably isn’t going to be cheap.

      If you want the light weight and durability, maybe the titanium or aluminum options might be in your price range.

  42. CameronJay

    Hey I was wondering if you guys did turn down 20 sided dice? Like for Magic The Gathering life counter.

  43. aerohippie18

    Can I order a d20 of these but have it be spin down for life counter use?

  44. Vance

    So, are these tougher and likely to last forever? Like, so you could take them everywhere and use them all the time.

    Or, are these more of a show piece that you would buy to show off how cool you are, but they might unravel or something if you used them too much?

    My understanding of carbon fiber is that it’s typically stronger than equivalent materials, but I’m not sure if that would be the same when used for this purpose.

    • Ben

      I have bought a set, and I intend to roll them like I stole them.

      The carbon fiber is held together with resin, I would rate the possibility that it may “unravel or something” as nigh on impossible without deliberate intervention and some sort of solvent. I wouldn’t recommend washing them in acetone.

      As for strength, I don’t disagree with your statement. But I am sure these dice will hold up to even spirited game play.

  45. patar8907

    On a scale of 1 (talc) to 10 (diamond), what is hardness rating of these dice? Just out off curiosity.

  46. Ben

    I wanted to see if I can get a larger picture?
    I am particularly interested in the D6

  47. Tale

    What does a d20 weight? How is the feel of the roll compared to a standard acrylic of the same size?

    Seriously tempted to add one to my collection cuz of the cool factor, but wondering how much I’d want to actually play with it.

    • Charlie Brumfield

      *warning delayed response ahead*

      they feel a bit lighter than your standard dice, but not excessively so as these are solid carbon fiber, not hollow shells. carbon fiber is much lighter than the materials it replaces, but alot of that lightness is due to the fact you can use much less of it and retain the structural strength.

  48. Yllidor

    Loved the Storm Trooper Suits (Armor) project. Liking the very idea of solid Carbon Fiber dice. The dice are a little pricey, but that’s life. Hey, Charlie, thanks for another exciting product.

    • Charlie Brumfield

      *warning delayed response ahead*

      thanks Yllidor. the storm trooper suits are freaking awesome. it’s too bad they won’t make them for sale :(.
