Hi guys, just wanna share a short clip of dice stacking. This is really the first basic stack. Hope to learn more.

I didnt do much video editing... yeah

Hey dude, may I know where did you get the cup to do the dice stack? Been searching for it for years and cannot find anything remotely similar. The cup will look more 'pro' then the normal cups that i use for dice stacking.

I have and carry them. Sent you a PM.

Haha i got my cup from Murphys

Magicdow, its now that i really see that signature of yours regarding casino dice. Can pm me the dice dimension and prices? Thanks

I was really into dice stacking sometime ago, and did spend quite a sum of money on those cups and dices. The only reason why I stopped is not only due to the noise, but the main concern is actually the surface to practise on. -_-

I'm aware that you do require a hard and flat surface to do the job, and most of our tables sastify that criteria. However, occasionally, my cups do leave black markings and even scratches on the table, which is not what exactly my mum wanted. <_<

Also, after lots of practising at home, I realised; how the heck am I gonna do this outside? At the coffee shop? During Karaoke? In school? Most likely is that the surface that is provided are not suitable, or you dont wanna take risks into harming public property with some scratches. (Actually, I'm more consent with my cups than their tables.) :wacko:

Just wondering, is there like a mat that is suitable for dice stacking? A mat that I can bring out easily, so I can demostrate this incredible art of dice stacking anytime and anywhere I want. :!!:

Lastly, nonetheless, I'm not those kind of lazy bums that sit back relax, while others search high and low to answer the questions I ask. I've went into search myself, but this is the only 1 I found.

However, I doubt that anyone here would have this mat anyway. If I'm wrong, a review perhaps? (This Magicdow guy seems to have/know everything! :P )

Wow, i'm going to get that board man the next time i order from Murphys man hehe. Thanks

So far, i performed it for a few of my frens on the conference room table which has laminated tables. The dice cup i'm using is disintegrating slightly on the edge cos of the friction and speed. But until now, there is no marks on the table.

A few girls were impressed too hehe.

Please do, and let me know how is it.. Hahaha. :P

I almost wanted to buy the dice/close up mat. But after some thinking, I realised that why should you pay for a board and closeup mat when you can carry both?

When you use the dice side of the mat, you dirty the close up mat's side and vice versa.

I use and sell (only $5) a soft plastic sheet that enables stacking on any flat surface. The size is about A3 size. I use this to practice dice stacking on my bed.

A good thing about this sheet is that you can even stack dice on top of a close up mat. If your mat is bigger than this sheet, for those who does loading, place the sheet over the close up mat, you'll find that you can load the cup and place the cup on the close up mat side killing any sound when you place the loaded cup down.

I have been using the same cup since day one. It has plenty of scratches but it still work fine after 7 years.

dtjk, I don't have everything lah, I think you have more than me :) .

Wah, I got everything? Is that a compliment or negative comment? Hahaha.

Also, I'll most likely contact you about getting that A3 size plastic sheet yea. ;)

Nonetheless, I'll still have my eyes set upon the dice board thingy.. :wacko:

Lastly, thanks to Cadbury who revived the art of dice stacking in me. :D

Haha, i do hope it gets picked up by others as well, its an impressive manipulation for lay people. I guess DTJK was once a stacking pro, so if u can guide me i'll be damn happy hehe.

That plastic sheet is tougher than those wrap books kind rite? as in thicker?

I might still get that dice board also cos it seem to be the "proper" prop :blink:

Stacking pro ur head. MagicDow is the pro here. Although he's uncle to us, his hands is still very power 1 ok..

I'll drop by to get the plasic sheet from Magicdow, and let you, Cadbury know.. :)

Wah say until he is so old meh?

That means Magicdow also super dice stacker ah? Then i would love to see him in action liao. I bet DTJK is not too far behind. I just started only... sometimes still got error scooping.

I just did reverse scoop and i did it at the first try hehe. I'll record a longer vid next time.

geez...all these posts make me wanna pick up this genre of manipulation too ^_^ .

But isn't a close up mat good enough? Still must buy the boards ar? :unsure:

normal closeup mats are not smooth enough. In fact, doing it on glass is good! I practice it on school tables, which are laminated wood kind, no marks but my cup gets worn slightly by the friction.

<_< I'm not that old ok. Anyway, the sheet is thicker than those use for wrapping books. You don't have to actually buy these unless you don' mind scratching your table surface.

Aiya.. Just buy the soft plastic sheet from Magicdow.
I bought mine a while ago from him. Its C and G (cheap and good).

I tried using acrylic before, but i don't know why it sort of created a drag on my cup after a while. Made it harder to stack.

A.

If i get the plastic do u have to tape the plastic down on the surface?

I dont, but my mum does.. Haha.

Yea Cadbury, I think Magicdow practise on his bed, so he dont need to worry about any slip.. But for us, we practise on like table.. So maybe need to find something to grip lor. :rolleyes:

i wonder how to practice on the bed, its so soft... landing no problem?

I use the plastic sheet to practice on my bed.

Guys, i got the dice board already. I'll post an image of it later on

Once side is a maroon coloured magic mat, the other is hard plastic, same material as the dice cup found in Murphys. Exactly the same plastic patterns.
