coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/25/2015 8:30 pm Probably 90% chance it was the hammer die that was affected as it is the one that is adjustable. The anvil die is fixed. But Dave is probably correct that they are determined from the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
