Default Scale Hanging Dice 4 your Rear View Mirror

I came across these dice in the doll house section of Hobby Lobby.


All I did was drill a hole in one side of the dice.


and used a little hot glue and thread

Looks great. Thanks for the idea.

One question not related to the dice, to you have any pictures of how you cut Lara Croft to make her legs bend? I've been trying to figure out a way with no luck, and only have 1 left.

Sorry for the delayed response, I've been working 16 hour shifts because of being shorthanded and couldn't get back to you. Thanks for the pics. Now I see how I was doing it wrong. Theses should really help.

Thanks again for sharing.

Dusty
