6-sided Die

After receiving our Flashforge Finder 3d printer, I wanted to create something to show students the possibilities when designing an object for the printer. My goal is for my students to understand I'm a learner as well. I'm willing to learn right along with them and do the same work they are doing.

I created this 6-sided die using TinkerCAD. I used a regular box but then I made it hollow using a another smaller "hole" box inside it. Then, I made holes for the numbers on each side of the die.

If I could change anything, I would have made the walls of the die a little thicker. It's really not heavy enough and the sides are too thin to last very long.

Here's the video I created of the Flashforge Finder in action:
