Excellence magazine did an in depth article on the new seal in 2010, and showed the two tools side by side, along with explaining why you cannot use the old tool with the new seal.

that is a little bit disappointing that Pelican Parts are still selling the old tool.
beside the depth, is there any other difference between the tools?
i mean, if the desired depth is 13mm and the "old" tool will drive the seal to 14, it should be pretty easy to alter to old tool to get to 13.
