Thanks for the warning. I had in fact picked up the point about the risk to tolerances in the thread referenced above, so in an attempt to minimise the problem I made a cylinder to effectively 'bush' the RT tube rather than 'shimming' the staff on one or 2 sides. The table now seems secure although the base of the table is not *quite* in contact with the hub. I could possibly press/tap it down further but am chary about that given what I've been told about the fragility of roller tables. I did in fact conclude that the 90° orientation would put the jewel in the right position wrt the pallet fork etc so your comment is reassuring. I'm now left with another 'first', viz replacing & securing the jewel which popped out as I removed the large, untidy splodge of shellac underneath the table (this, incidentally, was preventing the table base sitting right on the wheel hub).

Ok, such things happen, even in best families... The good thing is that it is damaged only in one place. I have marked this place on the pictures. This seems to me like #2 type bending only, which means it is twisted. So You will need to grasp with 2 tweezers the ends of the twisted portion and untwist it by twisting in the opposite direction. Hopefully, there will be no #3 bending. It will be confirmed if the untwisting will be able to bring the spring in one plain. Then only #1 bending will remain, which is easier, but picture will be needed after rectifying #2. -

My idea, is to stick various grades of sandpaper, wet and dry to the ends of these. Low to high grit. -
I went for the diameter as that's what you'd shown the measurement for and would be easier than the depth. As the 2892 is 25.6mm does it go through the internal hole? My thought are can you not just space the dial the 0.5mm to align the stem?
