Jim Coke Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Greetings Mom, That roller was made for non ferrous metals... If you attempted a billet it would open up like an egg.. Ya got to have pressure.. and lots of it.. Good luck Forge on and make beautiful things Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Einhorn Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I could be wrong, but I don't think that mill was intended to rolling hot iron. It was probably designed for rolling soft metals such as gold for jewelry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles R. Stevens Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 There is an Australian selling plans to a rolling mill. Might google him, I know he's on IFI some times. BTW check the price of an air over hydrolic press I know some have used them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
