After my meltdown (sorry jan) I got some food and sleep and woke up the next day determined to fix the problem. Since I'm in a time crunch I couldn't start all the way from the beginning. I ended up cutting of the spots that i 
thought would be weak and kept the original outside form. It now looks like a pillow but i'm okay with that. I don't like it as much but it will hopefully work. [center: my die after i cut the middle part]
I still used the copper pieces i had already pressed but surprisingly i love how the first design shows up on these pressings.

good work on your solution! It's become a really lovely shape. Is there a rhyme and a reason to the X's?
the Xs were to help keep the sides and pressings straight. They kept fading so that's why there were so many on there.
