Craig, That was kind of my point. IF the die was capped, AND it
wasn't noticed, then it might make sense, IF the other die shattered
( I never said damaged) and NEEDED to be replaced, then it was
replaced with the die that struck correctly on the subject piece. OR
the whole thing was capricious in nature. IMHO. David
