I’ve heard from dice makers that this actually doesn’t work real well. They are already pretty unbalanced and they tumble fine.

Casino dice are cut and non tumbled. The tumbling process is what gives the imperfections.

I have a handful of precision cut dice that are expertly weighted and non tumbled.

They say even that isn't 100% guaranteed to have perfect dice. And it's always good to have a solid pool of blackbox dice you rotate through. So that way any imperfections are smoothed out by probability.
