Helen,

    The flat rollers on your rolling mill will make sheet stock any
    thickness, including the thinnest sheet you can possibly imagine. 

    Regarding the ingot mold, I'd suggest a combination ingot mold, one
    that offers assorted sizes of round ingots, and an adjustable width
    of sheet ingots. Super handy and so practical. 

    I'd also recommend melting dishes in different sizes, one for each
    type of metal you are melting.
