This is just an addendum to the photo set of the Gearpunk dice. We’ve ordered some in a black nickel finish, and though we don’t have all of them in stock yet thanks to a factory mistake, we have a few. May as well show some beauty photos, right?

Tinker Oddments

This is a simple enough post… we’re just looking for a little feedback on what future projects we might windup doing in the Tinker stable of fun metal gaming oddments (well, all but the potential plastic Tinker Dice). If you’ve a moment to opine for us, we’d love your input.
Thanks! (If the surveys aren’t showing, this is an alternate link to the PollDaddy version: Tinkering with the Future)

It’s not final, since we’re asking them to make the edge gear teeth mesh with neighboring coins, and a couple of other tweaks on the perimeter, but I’m pretty happy with what we’re seeing on these so far. It almost makes me want to make a bigger range of coins…
These are 39mm in diameter, 3.5mm in depth. Poker chip size… but with teeth. Literally.

Just a quick sneak peek at the next big announcement for the Tinker Deck campaign. It’s been fun, doing the new oxidation messy pass on these.
The campaign is around 80% funded, so thank you everyone who has been a part of it! If you’ve a moment, please spread the word. There are miles to go before we sleep, and plenty of fun places to take the campaign if we get into the “stretch goals” segment.
Thanks!

I’m still tinkering a little bit with the deck I’m calling the Tinker Deck, prepping the last few touches before I launch the Kickstarter. We’re going to go ahead and roll with the Bicycle brand, though I have my reservations. If it works, great, if it doesn’t, maybe I’ll try again with the lower price point.
In the meantime, though, I’m doing a video and lots of paperwork. If you’re a CPA or tax prep indie, good on ya. If you’re from the IRS, well… something different.
Anyway, just a little tease today. I understand that many poker players like to have two decks ready to go, instead of just one. I’ve made a pair of card backs to cater to this quirk, and if the Kickstarter gets traction, we’ll offer a second deck with that other back… and a new cast of face cards. Specifically, I want to open it up to put backers on the alternate cards, giving us a Tinker deck with the historical figures I’ve already done, and another deck (“The Society”? “The Club”? “Grounders”?) sporting the faces (and costumes, maybe) of backers who are so interested. I’m still sorting out the nuts and bolts of the whole setup, but it’s an idea I want to float, anyway.
Among other ideas, that is. We’ll see how the campaign goes. It might just be a fun little exercise in wheel gear spinning, but hey, learning opportunity.
