best design when planning to use a pair of them in a stack.

         True.  First determine the stacking distance
you want based on HFTA.  Next model the combination
using YO7 (not sure if YO will do it but I know YO7

 >I plan to experiment with HFTA, YW and YO but would also
like to hear your thoughts on the subject.
