This is a very nice example of an early K&D Inverto staking set. It is the newer open front design which allows easy removal of the inverted punch. There are 100 K&D punches and 21 stumps. All of the punches have been polished, cleaned ultrasonically and lightly oiled. There are no duplicate punches in this set.
This set has 2 adjustable roller table stumps, 10 various pin punch inserts and a pin punch holder included.
The Inverto frame has been cleaned, adjusted and lightly oiled. It has some minor scratches to the nickel plating and some small amounts of loss to the right side mostly.
The die plate holes are clear, it is square to the punch tube and the locking mechanism works very well in both directions. The punch retaining feature works, but is very sensitive.
The 18 series hardwood box has been stripped, lightly sanded and has an oil based, hand rubbed finish applied. It turned out amazing.
I replaced the latch system with a newer 18R type set and polished out the hinges, handle and identification plate.
This set will make a very nice workhorse, Inverto set for some aspiring watchmaker or hobbyist.
Please see the attached HD photos and don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
