Sorry, the friction will be so great that the wheel will barely turn, if the movement will start at all, the amplitude will be verry lo. -
If I can’t re-pivot the wheel, the logical thing to do is to descend the pivot hole. Plan is to either stick a suitably sized hole jewel (from a barrel bridge or something) or fashion a blob of epoxy on the underside of the escape wheel cock so the wheel sits on its one pivot on the base plate and the staff with the broken off pivot (which I’ll polish as best as I can) becomes the upper pivot. As long as it doesn’t foul the 4th wheel it should work? I know it’s a bodge job, and if this were a rare movement, or belonged to someone else I would not do this. I’m just interested to see if I can get the thing to run. -
I'm curious if the base diameter could be changed so that it could be used with the hand press tool, which I believe is 31.0 mm. -
