Method for making die boards, and materials and apparatus for practicing the method

摘要

In a die board (10) for cutting and/or creasing sheet-type work material, a base (12) is provided that includes a first upper surface (13) and a second lower surface (14). At least one slot (16) extends along the first upper surface and includes a first slot section (18) extending from said first upper surface at least part-way through the die board base. The at least one slot also includes a second slot section (20) extending from said second lower surface at least part-way through the die board base. The first and second slot sections each have a width with at least one of the slot section widths being adapted to grip and retain at least one die-board rule (22).
