<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 698983, member: 112&quot;]To understand die polish lines think about this. All of those little protected areas like inside the letters and numbers or the small flat, low areas on a coin like under the hair at the back of the neck or places like that. Well on a die, all of those places are the high, flat points that stick up in the air.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is these high, flat points that are polished to make them smooth again. So while on a coin these points are the hardest to get to, on a die they are the easiest to get to because they stick up in the air all by themselves. </p><p><br /></p><p>You put a little diamond paste on your polishing belt and just hold the die down against it. Voila - the die is polished.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now on the incuse Indian designs all of this is in complete reverse. And polishing those dies after use, that took some work. And precision work at that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
