<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cherd, post: 7786950, member: 24754&quot;]I&#039;m fairly ignorant of how these things were/are done, so forgive me if these are stupid questions. But, it seems to me that, if possible, it would be way more efficient and consistent to create dies from master dies. For instance, use a master die in positive relief that is used to stamp production dies before hardening (Not sure if &quot;hardening&quot; only applies to steel, or if there was an equivalent with alloys used back then).</p><p><br /></p><p>So, when we say &quot;same die&quot; in this context, are we talking about dies that were somehow produced from the same master? Or are we talking about an individual object that was used multiple times? Is it possible that it could be a mix of both?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
