Yep,

That worked for me ! Now I have a MUCH better understanding of how
these things work ! Where would I be without you experience
people ?? No doubt trying to roll SILVER ingots through a "Slip Roll"
or something....
Awesome freaking advice from you all and I'm a happy camper as a
result.

The wire thing for me is definitely NOT as important as the "FLATS" of
the Mill... Especially since I'm rolling Silver, Gold, Copper, Brass,
etc. Finished wire is normally what I like to use and having to make
it myself (with drawplates and such...) just isn't 'worth it' at THIS
point. I think I'll continue to buy my wire as such and will purchase
the "FLAT ROLLING MILL" only. Likely the Durston 130.

A good choice I think.


If and when I'm ready to do a LOT of wire, I think I'll then either
sell my MILL and buy a DUAL rolling machine, or I'll add a WIRE only
machine to the Durston 130.

When the time comes, add a wire only mill. Do not sell the flat mill!
