using two small ingots in one ring

[sndmn2]

I have tried repressing ingots.....kind of. I've done what you've said and saved and marked pressed ingots. If I have a ring that weighs say a little over the max (7.5) I'll put a new ingot in first and the old in last. This way its all new material going into the crown and the old pressed material is just allowing me to press to the end of the crown avoiding a short press. I don't do it a lot but it's always worked, comes in handy when you've forgotten to order a sleeve of ingots.

So you have used a " previously? pressed pellet of the same shade as a "push" pellet with good results? I've thought of it before but never acted out the thought.

Yes, just reduce the diameter of the pressed ingot so it will go into the ring easily.
