That is thoroughly incredible, wowzers!
I got the Wingspan game with both add ons and saw the coolest things on etsy to replace the cardboardy parts that come with the game. I have never been more tempted to buy a laser cutting machine! I have zero idea where to even start figuring out how to use such a thing but the temptation was REAL! You make incredible things.

Oooh, I love Wingspan. I got my mom one of the expansion sets for Christmas.
Laser cutting is one of my favorite addictions!

Love that you lined the dice tower with leather to give a good sound.
What are the dragon scales made of?
You are the best momma! All of this is just awesome.

Excellent!! What a treasure for their gaming!! Much nicer than my son’s dice tower! 
The leather and wood should make for nice dice rolling sounds! How large is it overall??
You have a laser cutter??
The dragon scales are super! Did you sew those on after making the bag or are the holes in them large enough for your crochet hook to hook through? Looks great!!
My niece is the longest running female dungeon master for DnD in the world. She’s been running a DnD game since the 70s. I have no idea if she has a dice tower. I know she has a ton of dice! lol!

This is stunning!
@Harlan, I’ve used the scales many times making dice bags. The holes are big enough to use a 5mm crochet hook right through them, which is perfect for a nice tight bag using worsted yarn. I think most of mine were posted over on Deadster, but I made one for my dad for Father’s Day last year that’s here on LC. You might be able to see how they work on that post.

I’ve been meaning to make a tutorial for this one. I’m supposed to make another for my brother, so I’ll try to remember to take pictures this time. I actually crochet the bottom to get a nice circle, knit the sides with the scales added every other row (and yes, the hole are big enough to get the needle through and fish through the yarn), then switch back to crochet at the top to do an easy cinch top.
That’s amazing! My longest running game so far was about 5 years.
Oooh, yes. I’ll have to!
