This will help me consolidate all my videos under one roof rather than maintaining two separate systems, and it will also help clean up WRT a bit.

Have adjusted it like that. Also removed the jumper altogether to see if the disc would move more, but it didn't. I measured the diameter of the peg on the driving wheel and it's 0.3mm, is this the correct size?, to me the peg looks a little bit smaller then the other once I see pictured here. -
Forgott to add a picture showing the correct height, just make it level with the hour wheel. -
It is supposed to be completely flat, no wobble. If it's not flat there is a risk the disk is not just scew but the date ring also is misaligned to the star wheel. The snappy action during date shift will for sure not work in that case. A date jumper is supposed to do what the name applies, keep the dial in place with a small force, just to keep it in place only by friction will make the dial move a slight bit with every small chock the watch gets and I doubt even ROLEX haven't made it work that way, but one never knows ,

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night, all. I've been an enthusiast for a very long time(I'm 65) but have never progressed past the stage of strip and clean. I'll set up my bench and then not touch it for a year or so, but I'm back. I live in Mexico Beach, FL and as most of the area our home was almost destroyed by hurricane Michael last Oct 10th, 2018, but lucky for my lovely wife and me the interior of our home was untouched, so watch bench, tools and my collection were all in great shape. Most of the home repairs are done with a few items remaining that are lower priority, so back to some sort of normal for us. I look forward to reading the forum for tips and knowledge. Regards...
