Smallest Dice in the World.

Einstein said that God does not play dice with the universe – but if he does, then he’d probably use the tiny die made by Iriso Seimetsu Co. of Japan:

Billed as the smallest dice in the world, each one measures 0.3 x 0.3 x 0.3 mm (for perspective, see the photo above showing one of the die next to a 0.5-mm diameter mechanical pencil lead). The tiny dice are painstakingly crafted one by one from BsBm (brass) in a 9 hour long fabrication process that relies on the latest in micromachining technology. Each one weighs 0.00016 grams and the pips measure 0.05 mm in diameter.

    Now all they need to do a mint a wee 20-sided die and God can start playing Dungeons and Dragons! That’ll drive Jack Chick up a wall.
