    This is a good way of doing things -- you get exactly what you want,
    and it is delightful. I got a new drill and a new Dremel-type tool.
    My wonderful husband's part in this is that he made me go out and buy
    new ones, rather than my trying to repair the really, really old ones
    that stopped working. 

    I also wanted to get a rolling mill before the year ended (too late
    for that). I e-mailed Kenneth Singh about the Pepe brand, but
    received no response. My husband and I are going to New York City in
    mid-January -- can anyone recommend where to shop for the best
    variety of rolling mills? I just don't want to spring for a Durston,
    since I would only give the mill light and occasional use. But I
    also don't want a mini-mill because I want longer (wider?) rollers. I
    plan to go to Metalliferous, perhaps to Allcraft, anyhow. 

Thanks in advance,
Judy Bjorkman
