It's not a baffle box--it's a scrambler--video

This is so unique, different and better than a Baffle Box that we don't even call it a scramble.
A baffle box has baffles...wedges to make the dice turn when they hit. The scrambler has rods that truly toss and turn the dice in different directions...some times one die goes over the front of the rods and the other goes over the back.
The biggest difference is greater assurance the dice are random. It was possible, in older baffle boxes, to "set" the dice and lay them lightly into the box and affect the roll. Joe Russell and others proved this at the old Cavendish club in LA.
Even Joe now uses the Scrambler, WITHOUT CUPS, as he is confident of random rolls with this tool.

(Yes, folks, I do have a financial interest in the P40 Scrambler so you don't need to accuse me of being biased. I am biased.)
