This October has left me a bit battered, if I'm honest!
Coal and steel topped up, narrowboat moored safe against the storms, biscuit stockpile secure from the forge mice, but it's been a lean month.
A sensible craftsman would have played it safe until the festive markets had a chance to top the coffers up, but... well, an opportunity sprung up that I couldn't turn down!
Some bespoke tools came up for sale, once in a lifetime really, all the way from across the sea and I couldn't say no. For those who've chatted with me out in the wild, you'll know I've usually got two or three projects on the backburner. One of my longest standing has been tooling for forging gaming dice, those D20, D12, D10, D8 & D4 that are used for Dungeons & Dragons. Well, this is now in the works!
That's the good news! The bad news is, after assembling the sizeable funds for said tooling, I got ambushed by £550 of import fees. Short of charging the forge mice rent, the well of my October funds have run dry.
With that in mind, might I interest you in some dice? 😁
Individual D20 will be £30, including postage & carrying bag.
A set will be £155 and include one each of the following; D20, a D12, a D10, a D8, a D6 & a D4. This include postage & carrying bag.
Each purchase also comes with a massive amount of blacksmith appreciation for helping keep me battle the malicious vicissitudes of international trade squabbles!
And, come hell or high water, these will be out in time for Christmas!
