So, I have both. But, I cannot seem to prevent the C Frame from creating 'craters' around the dimple. The DRDT-2 does not do this at all.
Yes, I am hitting the C Frame with significant vigor...twice with a 24 oz dead blow hammer. Works great, except I don't like the 'crater/dent' created around the dimple by the C Frame. I even changed the elevation of the table around the C Frame to make sure the male die and surrounding table were at the same elevation, thinking that if the table were slightly higher, it might tend to bend the skin around the die. Doesn't matter.
I hope you can see the difference in the pic if I can figure out how to put the photo here:
Guess not.
I know it's prolly just cosmetic, but still, the DRDT-2 creates a really nice clean divot with no dent/crater.
What am I doing wrong. Or, is this a characteristic of the C Frame?
Thanks, in advance, as usual.
