          Appeal No. 1998-2037                                                        
          Application No. 08/642,850                                                  


          in confrontation collinearly on a cylinder and (b) a pair of                
          symmetrical line-up guides having a joint line coincident with              
          the confrontable edge of a respective piece of the die plate.               
               Since all the limitations of independent claim 3 are not               
          present in de Lanauze, the decision of the examiner to reject               
          claim 3 and dependent claim 4 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) is not               
          sustained.                                                                  
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.
