Thanks, that's useful to know. Will save some expense. "school in the 1900s" ! I didn't know you were so ancient @nickelsilver 🤣

Even the standard 3 size set doesn't cover everything- really need bigger ones for pocket watches, and sometimes smaller ones when you get a microscopic LeCoultre in 😂😬. But 99% of the time the 3 size set I got in school in the 1900s does it. They don't seem so expensive in that perspective- even the box is still in good shape a quarter century later. -

Feels about right, just choose the right steel , and you can play around with the shape and the arm thickness to suit how stiff it needs to be. Thanks John, Its spring steel John Cs100, i haven't h&t it yet but i will be doing. Marking out is quite straightforward, the black helps to see it. What i did realise is to leave plenty of meat at the end of the arm, you can take material off but you cant put it back on again. I would like to have a go at from scratch without the minute bridge for a template -
Just noticed the remarks on that screen shot you sent @Neverenoughwatches it says ratchet on back side, crown wheel just for show. So I think the click can be in 2 different places?

The Rodico trick is fiddly with such a small screw, it's just to get the thread started. Using a balance screw holder is easier, but it's still fiddly to get the screw in the holder 🤣 Yes, being a bit rough, they do mark the balance screws a bit. So, another thing to add to the tool "wish list". Thanks for reminding me 😟
