<p>An encapsulating block encasing a projecting workpiece, the block having a plurality of parallel slots in opposed side walls, the slots in each side wall extending alternately from opposed side edges of the side wall and terminating in a bearing face in the region of a plane passing through the workpiece and a frangible cross-sectional area of the block. Apparatus for use with the block consists of a pair of dies each having a plurality of parallel projecting tines receivable longitudinally in the slots to meet the bearing faces whereby on moving the dies together the block will fracture in the frangible cross-sectional area.</p> |
