Powered by a \u003cstrong\u003e50-to-1 reduction gearbox\u003c\/strong\u003e and a large flywheel, the Olivia allows jewelers and metalsmiths to roll metal with minimal effort — including those who find traditional rolling mills difficult to operate due to limited strength or mobility. The front-facing wheel and compact footprint mean you can mount the Olivia beside your bench and work comfortably while seated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the \u003cstrong\u003efull flat Olivia, Durston model 1036\u003c\/strong\u003e, featuring a 130mm flat roll and four half-round sizes on the extension rolls. The side extension rolls allow straightforward rolling of half-round shanks in 4, 3, 2, and 1.5mm sizes. Whether you are doing reduction work on sheet metal or forming wire profiles, the Olivia's super-easy gear ratio makes precise, consistent rolling achievable for any skill level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all Durston mills, the Olivia features \u003cstrong\u003eself-lubricating, maintenance-free bearings\u003c\/strong\u003e and hardened helical drive gears with a special form engineered for maximum drive efficiency. A calibrated dial with pointer on both top wheels provides precise, easy-to-read gap measurement. The Olivia can be mounted on a sturdy benchtop or on either the Durston pedestal stand or Durston cabinet stand (sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurston rolling mills are renowned for holding their value better than virtually any other tool in the jeweler's studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50-to-1 reduction gearbox (Patent Pending) for effortless rolling with minimal physical effort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge flywheel aids smooth, controlled metal reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-facing wheel design enables comfortable seated operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130mm full flat roll for sheet and flat stock work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour half-round side extension rolls: 4mm, 3mm, 2mm, and 1.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-lubricating, maintenance-free bearings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened helical drive gears with special form for maximum drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalibrated dial with pointer on both top wheels for precise gap measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Durston pedestal stand and Durston cabinet stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Great Britain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\n.tg  {border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;}\n.tg td{border-color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;\n  overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;}\n.tg th{border-color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;\n  font-weight:normal;overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;}\n.tg .tg-cly1{text-align:left;vertical-align:middle}\n.tg .tg-wa1i{font-weight:bold;text-align:center;vertical-align:middle}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tg\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003ePart Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003eDurston 1036\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eRoll Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e130mm × 60mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eRoller Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003eFlat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eRoller Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e130mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eRoller Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e60mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eSheet Thickness Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eGear Ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e50-to-1 (Patent Pending)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eSide Extension Rolls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003eFour half-rounds: 4mm, 3mm, 2mm, 1.5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e19-3\/8\" L × 8-3\/4\" W × 21-1\/4\" H (490mm × 220mm × 540mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-wa1i\"\u003eNet Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"tg-cly1\"\u003e154 lbs.
