Here are some questions that I hope someone can provide some information on:

Where can one purchase magnetic dice? And exactly how do they work (does one need a metal table to have them thrown onto?)? Most importantly, is it possible with magnetic dice to have the same number come up each and every time they are thrown??

Any information is appreciated! Thanks!

Magnetic dice can "probably" be gotten from almost any gambling supply house.

They are loaded with magnetic slugs and you need a "juice joint" under the table. The one I use is held on my knee with an ace bandage.

Depending on the side of the magnet you have "up" the dice, based on the polarity, will come up either sixes all the time or aces.

You can have the magnet in something, like a purse that you have on a bar, and toss the dice against.

However, due to the funny action of the dice they are almost always used in a dice cup.

You can also use a dice "drop" (old device where dice are thrown into and the fall down a ramp and land in an enclosed area.

They are not cheap.

You could also rig a table with an electro magnetic field. Smile
