I have found adding a shim to the die if it's close to the size you need helps. I've also capped the ends of the tube after I filled the tube with sand for thinner stuff. You can do a lot with the "kinker".

Today is the last day of this year so i decided to visit the final Flea Market for 2017, i was looking for couple of threading taps in specific sizes but did not had any luck, but managed to buy those two cutting pliers and a bench grinder wire wheel, which i need for a future project, happy new year to everyone.
