coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/16/2019 7:03 pm Note what is there. The base of that device is their. That tells it is a Struck Through Grease error. Not a biggie, but it is an eduactional piece as it show how a near fill device would look like. Unlike a damage device as there are not metal movement. Wide, so it is not a die polishing error. It makes a clear that it is a grease error. Report this Post to the Staff
