Question for you Groovy radical dude? How does one know the difference from this and a "Strike Through". Is this in fact damage and a Stike through an error?

 

I’ve never seen a feeder finger that wide or deep.

 

The term for the deeper, wider area is "Feeder-applied struck-through"

The feeder scrapes on the die end up leaving piled up shaving on the die which is then struck-through. You are left with evidence of a die showing the result along with feeder mechanism die scrapes.

This would have been done on a horizontal stroke Schuler Press with a Dial Feed mechanism see this photo

 

Not my first rodeo. This is my 3rd 2018.

2018 would be the first year a Dial Feeder was used on the Schuler Press.
