where can I purchase dice that has pips all the way through?

first Id have to learn how to cast pens, but the idea is excellent.

What size tube do these kits use?

Here's some dice that are only 8mm square. They have them in 10mm too, I think.

Drill'em, stack'em, cast'em, turn'em.

Maybe I'm missing something, but if you drill the pips all the way through, won't you just wind up with a hollow cube... 6 drilled through will have 6 holes on both sides- you lose the 1, the 5 side will have 5 holes through and you lose the 2, the 4 side will have 4 holes all the way through and you lose the 3... ???? What am I missing???? I understand Mack's suggestion and if you drill 1/2 way, then you'll retain all the pips.

Allen, Toni's rendition looks very similar to the Vertex (or Vortex?) click pen. Will have to look and see if I have one. What about making your own die? Smaller, I might have an ebony pen blank. I'd make them small and leave them squared with maybe just a "softening" of the edges.
