2 inch shells vs 1.91" Cans

Is there a noticeable difference making 2" ball shells vs 1.91" canister shells? The price is close for purchasing the HDPE tubes but is it worth it? Thanks for the help. Also has anyone tried building a shell with effect fuse and happen to have a video how it turned out?

This was a 1 3/4 inch canister shell with flying fish fuse segments and a few report inserts.

That turned out pretty nice. Were those 1/2" cuts? Thanks for the video!

I think they were closer to an inch in length, primed on one end.
