It just occured to me that we can make #bitcoin wallets by rolling a ten-sided die 48 times for a 12 word seed and 96 times for a 25 word seed.

Is the entropy good enough though?

Yes

Assuming the dice are perfectly balanced then the entropy (randomness) should be 100%. I think what you are meaning to ask is if the sample size is large enough, which would be 10^48 different combinations. I don't know if 48 zeros is enough, but it sure is a lot. Also, the method you use to assign letters to each dice roll further increases complexity.

I plan on breaking the number up into twelve 4 digit numbers.

0000 = abandon

2047 = zoo

I forgot I need to calulate the checksum.

No that isn't enough...

Don't remember the amount, but you should through more dices a/o times

I'm sure you'll find the it relatively easily
