Because a lot of games involve two dices, this model has two wheels in stead of one. Following the design of Gustavo Rezende I made some new components and some changes to his model to make an accessible rotating dice for non sighted users. Some of the components in this model come from his design you can find here: https://www.printables.com/model/74097-rotating-dice-2. The rotating braille dice have an advantage to be accessible, but also helps that you don’t need to search for your dice when you roll them. Also the tactile experience of spinning the wheels is nice for Visually impaired people. The sound and feel make it very nice to use it over and over again. Please follow the original description and printing tips to have a good print: To make one, you’ll need: 2 small bearings (3x10x4 mm) like these ones: https://www.amazon.com/Fishing-Shielded-Miniature-Bearings-VXB/dp/B002BBF59C 14 little magnet cylinders (3mm): https://www.magnetstore.co.uk/neodymium-sphere-magnets/3mm-sphere-magnet/ a 48 mm length metal rod, with 3mm in diameter. two 16mm length screws, 3mm diameter (M3). Print the parts with 0.1 or 0.2 layer height. I printed the parts with 20% infill, 3 shells. The dice can be printed with 50% to give them some weight and moment of inertia. Snap the magnets by pressing them against the proper holes (indicated in the image) with a hard surface (a ruler, for example). The magnets holes were made to let the magnets free for spinning, to ensure the attraction force between them (not repulsion). Depending on how the magnets balls were made they can have magnetic poles changing across its surface – or from inside to outside. So, if you get the first type, they will spin and attract each other.
