Thanks for spending time on this. I've come across 2 William Burroughs: one was a Blacksmith in Chipenham, Cambridgeshire; the other one W James B, Clockmaker of Barbican, London. I've also seen mention of square date boxes being pre-1760 but I guess there will be exceptions....

Yes its incorrect, thats what throws the coil out of center. @DanB terminal curve is at a radius equal to the distance from balance jewel hole ( or balance pivot) to midpoint of the regulator pin-boot. The coil should remain concentric and unaffected by moving regulator pin along the entire length of the terminal curve, here's how it usually looks. Good luck.

None of the pros here will agree that knocking a staff out is a good idea however it is carried out. After cutting one out i can now see why, in this case this morning the staff rivet was thick and sunk in deep on the balance wheel, i seemed to be cutting it forever, i had to stop twice to re-sharpen the graver and wondered when the wheel would become free, maybe why i caught the wheel, i was beginning to get impatient, it took a lot longer than i thought it would do.
