These are Italian and spark-eroded. (Apart from the large old Eley tool from the 1800s!) The lathe turned ones with the pin are crude but will effect a passable roll. Remember, LUBRICATION is important when rolling!

mpk: I may be getting a spare soon from a bloke who's selling his gear. I'll pm you!

 

My set came from DanArms/Brit when they existed in Telford.

You can still get the Italian made roll-crimp tool from a supplier in the UK

 

They are the very best you can get. They can be used to roll-crimp the case closed in the normal way with an over shot card

 

OR (unlike the cheap pin type)

 

They can be used after closing by star-crimping to give a great commercial look to the finished cartridge.

 

But as they are a quality made item by as floating chambers states by spark errosion they are not cheap.
