Hello,
I purchased an older electric rolling mill. Brand unknown, no
instructions, etc. I need to know are the basic operating instructions
for a mill the same as others ?
Where can I get instructions in using a mill ? ( a link to a website
would be great ) also where can I get Ideas in creating different
textures ( how to )
Thanks, Mtnrabbit


Hey, lucky old you!!,
you must be a hell of a guy to just picked one up?
They generally weigh more than most people can lift.
Now the older smiths here can help you,
but
we need to
1. See an image of it
2.Have some dimensions as follows,
roll width,
roll dia.
wether all flat or
part grooved.
Motor Horse power and rpm
Approx roll rpm when running.

also overall weight height etc.
Finally where are you?
As there might just be another working s/gold smith
near you who might be willing to help.
Did you also look around to see if there was anyonther tools of our
trade where you found it?
Leave no stone unturned in this sort of situation.
