I love the video but for resin poured dice, it's important to take the cost of the mold and the cost of the dice masters into consideration. Pre-made molds can be super expensive if someone wants to be able to maybe sell their own dice down the line due to copyright issues (about half of the premade molds on the market don't allow for resale because of the font). Additionally, if you are making the mold yourself, you have to take that cost into consideration too (silicon, cups, stirs, etc.). To be fair to you, most people don't include those costs in their comparisons or "how to" videos. I just think it's really important for people to know before they get into it only to find they can't afford it.
After testing way too many store bought dice across multiple companies, calculating their chi squared value after 1000+ rolls, I can say with confidence that I will not be using store bought ever again.
I'd be interested to see different strategies for painting the dice and tests on the durability of varnish vs epoxy clearcoating.

does anyone know how durable artisan resin poured dice are? i love how they look but dont want to go in on a set if they start wearing away easily
