Has anyone ever made 3dp star crimping dies? If so, how did they work? Wanting to make some 9 mm or 44 blanks for a 37mm launcher (fosscad.io)

The MILC megapack has some DIY crimping dies for .38spc rounds, I believe. They work kind of okay, but definitely not as well as a commercial one. To be honest I don't even crimp my MILC rounds anymore, but if I was going to, I'd use a commercial die.
