Not as a point or argument, merely as one who has used the tank dies, so
please do not take this as a flame at all. I whole heartedly enodorse the
tank dies (like that really matters:-) Like I said, I now use the tank
dimple dies even on all substructure, ie, ribs spars, stiffiners. I will
continue to change dies, as the results are much better...at least I feel
they are. For a detail analysis go to Sam's page. He documented fully, the
differences in the two sets of dies.
