Hi Mike(Mont),
You are correct. I believe Dell once said he used the pointy end of his LRL to clean the crevices on his boat if he needs to. Why not if it works?

It is interesting that you like that rod for currency. Can you tell us any stories of currency you have found with it?

Also, you will find that paint stores sell rollers in that same shape that have pretty low friction plastic bearings on the small diameter "weenie roller" model. But these rollers probably don't fit the brass rods. They are made for the larger diameter steel rods of the roller frame. And there are some full size paint rollers that actually have hard plastic ball bearings in them for even lower friction if that could be useful in your new design. These are built into the larger paint roller frames, so you are stuck with using the steel paint roller for the rod.

Best wishes,
J_P
