I have dice the size of the GW ornate dice they sell in the limited sets right now. I would like to buy a portable dice boot/shoes for them. Would someone who has one or have tried one let me know where I can buy one?

You mean dice towers?

Not what you were thinking? They are rather portable.

I was thinking of getting yours Diehard2501. I am actually one of your followers on FB. :-)
From the look of it though, I am not sure if the GW Munitorum dice would fit in that box. Would you have a chance to try it out and see if it fits?

munitorum dice are ~14mm sized, assuming that thing fits 16mm's (which by the few dimensions given, with the pictures) it will - those things will fit.

When I started this thread, I did looked at the measurement but I would like to know some first-hand voice of experience. I was worried that the dice might not roll nicely if the opening along the rolling path is too snug.

A box lid does just as good of a job as a dice boot, and it is very portable. And you can carry stuff inside them, too...

I have a big wooden box lit that I got from Michaels. Carry a bunch of stuff that I don't have foam for + acts a dice tray. I just feel like spending some money on stuff that looks nicer than a wooden tray with some cheap color cloth on it.

I just checked and it will fit up to 19mm (3/4") dice with no problems. I would not recommend rolling more than 10 or 12 at a time though. More than that can bunch up at the bottom. of the chute.

Then the 16mm dice would fit right in. Awesome.  Me ordering one definitely.

Just saw these in another thread: http://www.miniaturescenery.com/CategoryPage.asp?CODE=CAT_ACCG
but the best one I've seen lately is a guy at our FLGS who turned his GW Bastion & ADL into a dice tower. Works great & matches the GW terrain for the boards we play on.
