[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3128924, member: 77814"]If you think about it as "metal flowing" and that flowing metal interaction with the die, then you can think about the process of aging (aka deterioration of the dies).

Then you get as above "die deterioration doubling" then you get more "mechanical doubling" I think that's right ... at least that's what makes sense to me right now. and Double Die is totally different, though some of the variations can be confused. It's a constant evolution of learning ...[/QUOTE]
