Does anyone know where I can get a perfect non-magnetic cube, about an inch on each side, with a fair amount of equally distributed mass?
I want to use it with 6 piezoelectric transducers in order to make a 3 axis accelerometer and orientation sensor. It will be the "equalibrium" of my android.

I'm checking it out right now. It does look like a promising vender.
I'm starting to think that maybe dense rubber would be a good option because I can squeeze it in for a tight fit.
I just measured my transducers. They're actually a little under 9/8" in diameter. So that's the size I'm looking for - 9/8"

I just found blank dice, sold in small quantities.
