You're talking about dimple dies. I know a number of vendors sell them, although I personally haven't bought them. From the top of my head: www.kartek.com

Whoa, high bucker set there, here is something a little more affordable, and a decent write-up as well:

Didn't know, cause I couldn't compare.
Kartek's site doesn't even list their prices. :looser:

I'd spend the money and get a set with a lifetime warranty from a good company. Those cheap ones for the most part are more aggravation then help, especially when then are not the right size for tight work or break in the middle of a job.

I really don't think any tooling has a lifetime warranty, it is the nature of the beast, tooling wears, that is life. I hear what you are saying about quality, but I would like to see a set with a lifetime warranty, otherwise, they seem to be the same.

I got a set from chassisworksinc. They make there own chassis and found a place they could get dies at a good price. 299.00 for a set of 5 goes up to 2 1/2 inch. I found them on ebay. They give a 60 or 90 day warranty on die craftmanship/quality. Then they are yours. I searched several and these are just like the others. Plus you get more dies for the money!
