Make sure the hole covers all of the thread exposing only very little of the bar.<\/li>\n<li>Mark the drill bit with tape so you drill to the correct depth.<\/li>\n<li>Set the drill to a low speed.? I used setting 2 on my drill which has 24 speed settings.? Go carefully as the dice may try to spin out of your hands.? Also dice are very brittle and will crack easily.<\/li>\n<li> Drill the hole in any number.? I found that 8 is a good number to drill as the center of the 8 acts as a guide for the bit.<\/li>\n<li>Put a dab of epoxy on the threads of the eye hook and place them into the hole.? With these settings the eye hook should actually slide in without binding.? I found that this works better after breaking a few dice trying to thread them.? \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<li>Let dry.<\/li>\n<li>That&#8217;s it!? \ud83d\ude00<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My current keychain is getting old so I decided I wanted one with an RPG dice on it.?
