Wonder how balanced it is.

Probably not very.
Pretty sure the 5 and the 2 are supposed to be on opposite sides.
Then again, pretty sure most the Chinese counterparts aren't very balanced either.
Same.

I checked a couple dice I had in the house, they all had this layout. Just looked online, it seems there are one or two variations. Before I make more I'll see if there's an 'official' dot setup.
Forged or machined?
This is true for all dice, where n is the number of sides, the opposite sides should add up to n + 1.
Nice!

Machined with an angle grinder and a drill press. Not as precise as a mill, buy I don't have one of those!
The opposite sides should always equal 7 on a standard die.
Time to make another one... Sounds about right.

👍 Even better. Making a true square is not easy, it's a first project for some German apprentice programs using nothing but files.
kinda sounds like fun... 🤔
If you find a pair that roll a regular combination of 7's............PM me.These would be a great addition to lodge this fall when all those doctors and lawyers show up looking to throw some money away.

Just kidding, nice work...the idea of dice as a weapon is intriguing.
couple dice connected by a strong chain hanging from the rear view mirror could come in handy.... 😟
but then again... a couple railroad spikes connected by a strong chain hanging from the rear view mirror would be even more effective... 🤔
