Welcome to the forum Craig. Glad to see another South African here.
The shrinker/stretcher does speed things up, but is not a necessity. I found with my tank, the usual Adendorf ones just can't get in deep enough. I ended up doing it with tuck shrinking. I find my English wheel more useful even though it is a wet noodle. It smooths things out afterwards with some light pressure.
