I don't know why I was limited to a 3DPrinting forum, but oh well.

I managed to grab a much coveted Meyer's No.58 Movement holder off ebay, but it only came with the second to smallest jaw inserts.

Not to be detered I reverse engineered how to machine the jaw inserts.

Here is the Flickr Album.

I made a small insert set as a test and then made a set for size 16s pocket watches.

I'll make a few more to fill out the set.

I made these from Aluminum, but might try glass-filled Delrin as an experiment

The drawing could easily be used to design the jaw inserts for 3D printing in Nylon or a hard Urethane
