Pictures of dies for snap press needed

For snaps (at least the ones you're probably thinking of), the post portion on the setter part of the dies (2nd and fourth from left to right) should be a lot shorter (just nubs) and the anvils should be solid. Those look like they're made to pass through something. The long post you see on Paul's dies is for the stud post to sit on and is actually spring loaded and retracts into the die as the stud is set as it has to move out of the way of the other die.

Thanks a bunch, I did not know that.
