Description
I made this dice shaker cup for a friend. We were playing backgammon and the shakers he had were fabric and were warping and the die didn't fall out nicely; they often got stuck. These are modeled and dimensioned after the dice cups that came with his backgammon set. I added the side ribbing so as to hold the cup better when tossing the die.

Rotate the part to sit straight up.
CAD used and thoughs.
I used Onshape to design the 'thing' and exported to STL in mm. I put a lip on the top so that the die would 'catch' and not just slide out straight. I put a band around the side so the shaker would not easily slip out when tossing the die.
