I finally got a metal working lathe in my shop so its time to build a rolling mill! This will be a 4 or 5 week project because my money gets split into surface grinder parts, damascus materials, the rolling mill, and lathe bits and tooling.
Here are the drawings I did this morning based on Delbert Ealy's rolling mill. I couldn't figure out how to convert auto cad drawings to JPG so I had to print them and scan them. Some of the detail/lines got lost though scanning, sorry.
If you haven't been trained on auto cad the pictures might confuse you. Each picture contains the front, top, and side of each part.
Top roller
Bottom roller.
The sides are drawn with the bearings in them.
Top/outside Sides
Bottom/Inside sides
Assembled mill
