You do know cylinders come in three parts you each end called a plug and the centerpiece. With the right cylinder stake you can tap the end plugs out.

Yeah, thanks, Dell. I know what you mean. I had a slight complication with this one, as I managed to break a carbide drill while drilling the hole. I was left with a much shorter hole than I wanted and couldn't remove the drill fragments. Silver solder seemed the best option, giving me a much stronger pivot. Also, as an escapement arbour, it has very limited movement, so I felt the wear issue wouldn't be a concern.

*****@*****.tld I have a swimmer 30 jewel, with the day at the 9pm - which i cannot find any record of anywhere. The issue i have is that i cannot find a way to adjust the day - any ideas?

Nice work but for future reference I just twist press fit a new pivot in the heat from silver soldering would have annealed the arbor & of course the blue steel wouldn’t be hard either just my suggestion.
