"So, you're in school and you can't roll crafts because you forgot your dice at home. So I'm going to teach you how to make some paper dice that you can play. My name is Robert Segundo, and here's how we're going to do it. If we look down to our paper here, we can see that I've already drawn out six squares; 1,2,3,4,5,6, like so. Now you can alternately put your other square down here, or whatever. And then you pop it out, and you cut it out; we're going to finish cutting it out. But one thing to remember when you're making your dice, is that opposite sides of the dice is supposed to equal seven. So, this is 3, this is 4, because 3 and 4 equal 7. This is going to be the opposite side here, we'll make this 1 and 6, and make this 5 and 2. So lets go ahead and finish cutting our dice out, like so. Just cut back in here. And a great thing about paper dice, is if you want to go ahead and load this, just take your penny and tape it. Like say tape it to your, this is going to be your 2, tape your penny to the back of your 5 side, and you got loaded dice, and just don't let your boys know, because they don't like you cheating when you're rolling on the streets. So now you're going to take all your squares, and you're going to fold them up, like so. And then you're going to take this side here. I drew this all out with a ruler, 1 inches, there we go. You want to bring the box together, like so, and just take a little tape, a little scotch tape I got here. I'm just going to tape it across, so we can still see our numbers. Make sure that you do your numbers in magic marker, you can probably see it a little bit better. So take the one side, I'm just going to bring this other corner up, roll this side up, and there you go. Now you have your paper dice, make sure don't roll them 11s now. Alright, my name is Robert Segundo, have fun."
