Hi, that's not a bad starting point! Most probably you'll just need more light frames I made an attempt with your stacking 22_done.jpg I'm not completely satisfied, anyway, here are a few considerations 0. Before wiping I've noticed that there is a light fall at the edges ... but you have used flats...

+1 for this or alternatives (see below) I don't need to save tracking data all the times but sometime I need to go along a path to understand whether params in several modules are ok, so I need one of the three - save tracking data - more undo levels - "re-playing" the log file up to a certain point...
