[TheForge] Sorry to break in with a blacksmithing question

[Phil]

I can't remember what I did before when attaching the
dies to the mounting plates for a kinyon hammer.  I'm
using H-13 for the dies.

Should I weld the dies to the mounting plates, and
then harden and temper them, or harden and temper the
dies, and then weld them to the mounting plates?

Once again, sorry for breaking in with a blacksmithing question.
