have you ever noticed a nicely waxed car when water droplets hit they literally just run off. That's what you would have with epilam. The whole purpose is to keep the oil from spreading and if you put directly on top of the epilam it might not form a nice round ball but it has nothing to stick to which is exactly what is supposed to happen. -
Because I often work on split-stem movements, I find it handy to have a full-length stem with a big plastic crown on hand for movements that I might see more than once. I set aside the original stem and crown during disassembly and use the "bench stem" while I'm putting things together and sorting everything out. The original stem gets lubricated and installed right at the end. In this case, that approach might not require swapping in and out an extender on the original stem if a long stock stem would give enough clearance. -

Thank you for the reply! Here are the photos you asked for. Please do let me know if you need any more photos or information. Thank you again for the help. Sorry, I forgot to quote you. The pictures are above. Thank you -
I was using the Bergeon 4040P holder ( the movement kept slipping from a tight hold) and I think I pushed the balance wheel and spring out of horizontal when I tried tightening the movement to the holder. I have since bought the metal 4040 holder which holds great. From the video can I just pry the balance wheel back to horizontal as well as the hairspring? Caravelle 11DP balance wheel video
