Marshall Moseley Staking Tool Set Layout

In a recent thread, Tom Colson posted links to updates to his K&D Inverto website - including newly scanned documentation for Marshall/Moseley staking tool sets.  This is exceedingly useful and important information - thanks! 

This leads, though, to a question:  What was the original factory box layout for the punches and stumps in the Moseley Staking Tool set?  I can't quite make it out from any of the photographs in the Marshall documents. K&D layouts have been published, but I cannot seem to find any Marshall/Moseley layouts.

Recently I acquired what was probably originally an 80-punch / 20-stump Moseley staking set in excellent condition, and I've since been able to expand its punch count to something nearer to one of the more complete sets (though as yet I lack the jeweling attachment).  But I can't figure out what the original punch/stump arrangement should have been.  It's made a bit more complicated by the fact that many of the punches, if placed in the lowest row of punch holes, interfere with the full closing of the box lid.

Unfortunately, no; I have discovered nothing further.  Neither could I make up an arrangement that both made sense to me and fit in the spaces.  So I found a second already-empty box on ebay and use both together.  Clearly this isn't right, but it has the advantage that it accommodates the occasional duplicate piece well.  If you would post the arrangement you end up adopting, I would be interested in seeing it.

Thank You oldhippy. I have seen that thread and many other, photos, sales flyers and manuals. I'm really looking for a diagram of the original layout with the C & E Marshall stake and stump numbers if someone had one floating around. Something like this one for K & D. If I end up figuring it out on my own I will make one and post it. Hoping someone has already done it and might share. 
Thanks again.

I realise this post is very old but it took me a long while to connect the dots here.

I do believe that the way the punches are laid out in the old C.E Marshall catalog (here) on pages 10 + 11 are the same as seen in the image of the set on page 12. However, instead of being spread over 5 rows (on pages 10 + 11) the punches are over 10 rows in the actual set (on page 12).

      Unfortunately I'm not that lucky. I started on the train side and after I noticed the binding I pulled everything out except the driving wheel to rule everything else out. It still binds. I'm going to double check that the pinion is fully seated on the staff first, then if no joy I'll push the bridge jewel up a fraction of a mm. Fingers crossed!

      Thank you for the advise!! It worked. The setting screw was a lock/unlock to remove the rotor.

      I have that French tech sheet too, it is a little different than the English one (eg, it doesn't have the auto works diagram). BTW, it looks like you are looking up the case number in the 1979 ABC supplement. The 1974 ABC catalog does have the 3093 case. As you determined it takes the 1222-5 crystal.  When I serviced my President 'A' (which also takes that crystal), I was able to fit a 29.8 crystal from my DPA crystal assortment. Those are, in my opinion, a great deal. The assortment comes with 10 sizes each from 27.8mm to 32.4mm in 0.2 increments. I pretty much use them for any non-armored crystal that takes a high dome crystal. I think they no longer make them but Cousins has still has some in stock but when I bought them they were around $40 for the set and now they are around $100. Still, at 40 cents a crystal it's still a good deal. For the large driving wheel, I remember I once assembled the keyless/motion works first and when I placed the large driving wheel it was interfering with the setting wheel on the dial side as the teeth were not fully meshing and it wouldn't fully seat. If that isn't the issue I got nothing and am looking forward to see how you solve it 🙂

      Not sure, but just looking at it, it seems like the screw on the right may be a fake? The one on the left may not be a screw in the regular sense at all, rather a 2 position device, I think you need to point the slot towards either of the 2 dots and one will secure and one will open. Like I said this is just my best guess looking at the pictures.
