It depends on your inventory. I've done several here in the last couple 
years, with several more on the horizon. Right now I'm working on an 
action which I did many years (1991) before I got the Onesti tool.  It 
turned out OK and is holding up, but seeing my locating marks reminded 
me what a pain it was to do.
