Hello! I just bought a Boley Staking/Jeweling tool and it's missing some punches. Do you know where I could buy some old/original Boley 4.7mm punches? Thank you!

Hello! I have a question, if I may: is there any way I could exchange the staff on the left with the one on the right? I would need to push out both of them and push back the good one on the left pallet fork. The staff is 0.4 mm and the pivot is 0.12 mm. Is there a stake (4.7mm ones) that small? I need to change it because the end fork is damaged (don't know if you distinguish in the second photo). Thank you, Bogdan

In a recent thread, Tom Colson posted links to updates to his K&D Inverto website - including newly scanned documentation for Marshall/Moseley staking tool sets. This is exceedingly useful and important information - thanks! This leads, though, to a question: What was the original factory box layout for the punches and stumps in the Moseley Staking Tool set? I can't quite make it out from any of the photographs in the Marshall documents. K&D layouts have been published, but I cannot seem to find any Marshall/Moseley layouts. Recently I acquired what was probably originally an 80-punch / 20-stump Moseley staking set in excellent condition, and I've since been able to expand its punch count to something nearer to one of the more complete sets (though as yet I lack the jeweling attachment). But I can't figure out what the original punch/stump arrangement should have been. It's made a bit more complicated by the fact that many of the punches, if placed in the lowest row of punch holes, interfere with the full closing of the box lid.
