I usually just use 2 pair of pliers to remove the roller ( just kidding 🤔 ) I want one,I have an adjustable free standing one. But i really like the little bradux tool that nips under the roller with two tapered jaws that lift it off. You can get under a scope with it to see in detail how the job is going. There is some technique involved to stop you chopping the staff, doesn't particularly matter if the staff is already broken but it naffs up the tool's jaws if you crunch the staff, and the jaws need to be in good shape to prevent damaging the roller. But well worth a try if you've never used one and you can find one that hasn't been misused or buy a one new. The trick is to keep one of your fingers between the two arms to soften the squeeze, with a little practice its a handy little to. I will now prepare myself for an onslaught of negative feedback on it 🤣 -
With luck even possible to fit your 13 lin. movement at all 😀. Those numbers are from 5 1/4, 8 3/4 and 13‘‘‘ sizes, with very different balance wheels! Frank

Welcome, there are several books on staking sets, see if you can find one from Henry Fried or K&D, they will show/tell you what you can use those stumps for, you just might figure it out on your own though....

I only looked at the balance staff site which showed four height variations and hub positions possibly down to different length pivots . 3 of them were very similar and a supershock variation that was very different. So maybe this one will fit with a slight adjustment ( I'm not going to mention the words 'shimming the cock' i dont think i can handle that today 🙂 )
