<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1751692, member: 66&quot;]The dies would be locked in place with a set screw.&nbsp; The early die bodies were cylindrical so they might grind a small flat on the side of the die to make the screw set better, but if the screw worked loose from the vibration of the press the die could work loose and start to rotate.&nbsp; It was basically the anvil die that did the rotating because if the hammer die worked loose enough to rotate it was often loose enough to fall out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
