Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/09/2018 6:31 pm This is a common event related to Die Deterioration. It is called metal flow, which moves the metal of the die outwards. The dies are then trimmed down because they no longer fit the holders, hence this are disappears when the redo the rim off set. Report this Post to the Staff
