Hi All,

    The quest has begun, I'm setting up my full-time bench/studio and
    have already begun to buy the essentials (mini torch, files, pliers,
    picklepot, tumblevibe, etc). I am in the midst of writing a grant
    proposal to be able to afford some of the 'big boys' that I can't
    manage on my own. My question is, in your opinion (because I know
    it's dependant upon how you work, what type of work you do, etc.)
    which is the more useful to you....a rolling mill or a drawbench and
    it's accessories? And in a follow up question or two is it better to
    go all out on the rolling mill or economize and is there much
    difference in use in the 3' drawbench vs 6'? Thanks ahead of time for
    your answers. Please let me know if there is anything 'more urgent' I
    should think of getting. Thanks 

Rai
