    dear Linda, yes, that is normal, I have made many ingots that
    disengage the top rollers. if you look at the side of your mill you
    will notice that it has springs in it.(i do believe) the mill
    actually opens up alittle more when you roll somthing through. try to
    forge the ingot on an anvil, annel it then forge again until it fits
    without a problem. caution.....once apon a time i was in the studio
    of a friend of mine and i rolled an ingot through a mill and
    literally split the mill in half. Durston is one of the best on the
    market but you do have a mini mill.
