Thank you for your purchase of your DIY Dice. Please review and follow the step-by-step process below and remember, safety first. Have fun

Step-by-Step Process:

Preparation: Use an angle grinder or metal files to smooth out the edges and clean the surfaces of each metal piece. This will ensure clean and precise welds.

Measuring and Alignment: Use a square to check for flatness and alignment.

Welding Setup: Set up your welding equipment according to the type of welder you have (MIG or TIG). Ensure you have the appropriate settings for the thickness of the metal you're working with.

Tack Welding: Begin by tack welding the corners of each face. Tack welding involves creating small welds to hold the pieces together temporarily. This will help you ensure that all sides are aligned correctly before making the final welds.

Welding: Once the tack welds are in place and you're satisfied with the alignment, proceed to make the final welds along the seams of the dice. Take your time to create consistent and strong welds to securely join the pieces together.

Cooling and Inspection: Allow the dice to cool down after welding. Once cooled, inspect the welds for any gaps or weak spots. You might need to make additional welds to strengthen any areas that are not well bonded.

Finishing: Use an angle grinder or files to smooth out any rough welds and to refine the edges of the dice. Gradually progress to finer grits of sandpaper to achieve a polished finish. You can also apply a metal sealer or polish to enhance the appearance of the dice.

Final Touches: Clean the dice thoroughly to remove any metal shavings or residue from the welding process.

Remember that welding can be hazardous, so always prioritize safety. If you're new to welding, it might be a good idea to practice on scrap metal before attempting the final dice. Additionally, the above steps are a general guide; the specifics may vary depending on your welding experience, the materials used, and the tools available to you.
