    Smith's paper on Swage dies

    I've been searching for the paper that Ted Smith of SAS dies wrote about making swage dies. I've lost the reference and can't locate it. I've referred others to it on this forum as well as sent it to others. But cannot relocate it.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Ok I have saved it at least till I have a putter crash. Will have to get some ink to print a copy. One question, what current steel would be equal to the tool steels he was using?
