Custom Dice Manufacturer — Metal, Sharp Edge Resin, Acrylic, Silicone, Wooden & Gemstone DND Dice | YSDICE

YSDICE — Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd. — runs six material lines under one roof in Chang'an, Dongguan: die-cast zinc-alloy metal dice, hand-poured sharp edge resin dice (epoxy), tumble-finished rounded resin dice (unsaturated polyester), injection-molded acrylic dice, food-grade silicone dice, plus machined wooden dice and hand-ground gemstone dice, with matching dice boxes, bags and trays.

Because every line shares one floor and one project manager, a mixed order — say metal DND dice with resin minis and a PU dice tray — ships in one carton with one photo report. That breadth is the practical difference between a dice manufacturer and a trading company reselling from three different workshops.

Three tiers, honestly stated. Factory in-stock designs start at just 2–10 sets per colour depending on material — gemstone and wooden dice from 2 sets, sharp edge, rounded resin and silicone from 5, acrylic from 10 — and you can mix materials freely in one order or simply clear a $500 combined minimum. Light customisation (ODM) — your colours and a laser-engraved logo on YSDICE's existing molds — starts around 10 sets with no tooling fee. Full custom (OEM) with a brand-new mold starts at about 100 sets for metal, sharp edge and rounded resin (acrylic from 500).

So a Kickstarter test batch or a first retail print run is a real order at Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd. — you do not need the 1,500-unit commitment most dice factories quote before they will talk.

Yes — that is the core of custom dice work at YSDICE. On metal dice your logo can be cast into the mold, laser-engraved or enamel-filled; on resin and acrylic it is laser-marked or printed; on silicone it is debossed in the tool and pad-printed; on wooden and gemstone dice it is engraved. Edition numbers, replaced faces (a sigil instead of the 20, a brand mark instead of the 1) and full packaging in your artwork are all standard requests.

Every placement is agreed on the free 3D proof before anything is made, so the logo lands exactly where you signed it off — checked again at the sample stage and once more at final inspection.

A new steel mold at Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd. runs $600–$2,000 depending on shape and detail, quoted as a one-time line item before you commit — and refunded progressively as your reorder volume grows, so a design that sells ends up paying nothing for its tooling. Your mold is never used for anyone else; that exclusivity is written into the contract.

Two lines skip tooling entirely: gemstone dice need no mold at all (the design is ground and engraved directly, sample in 5–7 days), and wooden dice are CNC-machined from solid stock. And light customisation on any of our 450+ existing molds never pays a tooling fee — you are reusing steel that already exists.

Yes — a large share of YSDICE orders are crowdfunded dice sets, and the honest schedule matters more to a campaign than a cheap quote. Working numbers: free 3D proof in 3 days, samples in 3–10 days by material, mass production 10–30 days, plus 20–25 days first if a new mold is cut. Sea freight adds 25–35 days; express 3–7.

Practical advice we give every creator: get the sample approved before your campaign launches, so the risky part of manufacturing is already behind you while backers are still pledging. We also deliver direct to fulfilment hubs, and inclusion (core-in-resin) designs are over-poured against their known 20–30% casting reject rate so your backer count arrives whole.

Always — no serious dice manufacturer should ask you to commit to a container unseen. Samples of existing YSDICE designs ship within a week; custom pre-production samples take 3–10 days depending on material (metal and sharp edge resin 3–5, silicone and acrylic 5–7, rounded resin 7–10). The sample cost is refunded against your production order, so you never pay twice for the same dice.

The approved sample then becomes the contractual quality reference: colour, weight, numeral fill and finish are photographed and archived, and your bulk run is inspected against that exact set — not against memory.

By material, from the schedule we quote every week at Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd.: light custom metal dice and sharp edge resin run 10–15 days in bulk (samples 3–5); acrylic and silicone 20–25 days (samples 5–7); rounded resin 25–30 days (samples 7–10); gemstone 15–20 days with no mold needed. Full custom adds 15–25 days of mold cutting up front.

A typical full-custom metal DND dice order end to end: 20–25 days for the steel mold, 3–5 for your sample, then 20–25 for mass production — call it ten weeks before freight. We put these numbers in writing on the quote rather than promising "about a month" and renegotiating later.

Three concrete protections, all in writing. First, your mold is exclusively yours — YSDICE never runs another client's order on it, and never resells your design. Second, an NDA is available on request and covers artwork, molds and unannounced products (standard for licensed and Kickstarter work). Third, our own retail store Maywinflow carries only Yushun's in-house stock designs — we are a factory, not a competitor waiting to clone your best seller.

Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd. has been casting for dice brands since 2018; repeat clients are the business model, and quietly reselling a client's design is how a factory loses them all.

Most YSDICE clients choose DDP door-to-door: we handle freight, export clearance, import duties and last-mile delivery, and the price you agreed is the landed price at your warehouse — no surprise invoice at customs. EXW and FOB are available if you run your own forwarder.

Speed matched to the order: DHL/FedEx/UPS express in 3–7 days for samples and small runs, sea freight in 25–35 days for volume, with consolidation available. Kickstarter runs can deliver straight to your fulfilment hub. Everything leaves Dongguan in export-grade cartons — bubble-wrapped sets, banded boxes, corner protection — packed for a 30-day crossing, not just the truck to the port.

50% deposit to schedule production, balance before shipment — the structure almost every dice factory in Guangdong uses, and the balance is only due after you have seen the final inspection photo report. Dongguan Yushun Hardware Co., Ltd. accepts T/T bank transfer, PayPal, Alipay / WeChat Pay, and Alibaba Trade Assurance for buyers who want the platform's escrow protection on a first order.

Mold fees (full custom only) are invoiced up front as their own line item and refunded progressively on reorders; sample costs are credited against the production order.

Both, through two doors. Wholesale, light custom (ODM) and full custom (OEM) run factory-direct through YSDICE — that is this site. Single retail sets of our in-house designs ship worldwide from Maywinflow, our own retail store, so collectors and players can buy one set of the same dice publishers order by the thousand.

If you are not sure which door fits — say you want 30 sets to test a shop shelf — email queenie@ysdice.com and we will point you the right way. Mixed in-stock orders start at 2–10 sets per colour or a $500 combined minimum, which covers most "too big for retail, too small for wholesale" cases.
