I'm getting ready to redo the panel on my RV-4 and will be wiring my RV-8 in the future, so I've decided to take the plunge and buy a DMC crimper. In searching the forum most everyone seems to be using the DMC AFM8 and a few positioners. My local avionics shop has the DMC AF8 with a TH1A turret versus what folks here are using (e.g. AFM8 + several positioners at $65/each).
So what am I missing here? Is there something that the AFM8 will do that the AF8 will not? Here are the links to the DMC models that I am looking at buying.

A DMC rep suggested I look at this one as well.

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Scott
P.S. Any recommendations on a good PIDG crimper would help. I have a HF pos and it is driving me crazy.
