    H-Dies in Walnut Hill press?

    Will Corbin Mfg’s “H” dies work in Richard’s Walnut hill press?

    "H" dies are 1" x 12. Walnut Hill press is 7/8" x 14. You can take the bushing (1 1/2" x 12) out of the WH and have a special bushing made for the H dies.

    My current bushing is the standard 7/8X14. Will the swage die fit in the press ram?

    You are correct. That is for "S" dies.
