    I'm a lurker and rarely post to this wonderful forum, but I need
    HELP! 

    (1) I've jammed by PEPE Roller Mill: the handle arm no longer moves
    the rollers, and I've got some silver and pattern material stuck
    between the rollers that won't release.....Can any of you
    knowledgeable folks tell me how to release and fix this without
    going back to the manufacturer?  Thanks in advance for your help. 

    (2) I picked up a lot of estate stones that look like beautiful star
    sapphires.  How can I determine if they are natural or man-made? 
    Again, thanks in advance for your help!
