I'm a retired Jeweler, gold & platinum though I did work with some silver. It would be much easier for you to use a roller. Perhaps you could pick up an old hand roller cheap somewhere, or pay some Jeweler to use their electric one. Or buy the sheets at the thickness you want. I just hate to see some one working hard unnecessary.
last christmas i bought a 200 eur rolling mill made in india. works pretty well and make things a lot easier. i used to make my sheets like this in the early beginning and since i did not find a lot of info on hammering out a sheet, i thought i'd make a video showing the process.
@fedaikn You did not say if the roller was electric. I find your videos very interesting. ,and have subscribed to your channel. Do you work only in silver? I have not worked for 16 years due to a work injury. For a year I was a teacher at a jewelry school. Also I must congratulate you on your English. I'm a native English speaker.
@ludvan64 i am no native english speaker and although i had english classes in school, most of my english comes from the internet and computer games.
the rolling mill is manually operated. i bought it new from w w w . zujedelloh . de . the electric ones were not an option for me.
i work only in silver, i am no jeweller neither did i take lessons in crafting jewelry. this is merely a of a hobby of mine. most of my knowledge in jewelry making comes from the internet.

@fedaikn Well I must congratulate you on both your English ( I looked at your profile so I know you are Romanian). And especially your jewelry skill.
