A: To calibrate a rolling mill, you can:
Adjust the rollers: Make the rollers almost touch, but not quite. You can use shims to check the thickness. You can also adjust the rollers by turning them clockwise until it looks even.
Take up slack: Run the mill down all the way and bring the rollers down tight. Make sure to take up all the slack in the screws, bearings, and springs.
Check the gears: Make sure the gears are lined up.
Test it: Put the handle back in and roll a piece through to test it.
Avoid over-tightening: Don't tighten the rollers too much, as you can damage the machine.
