I use a Bergeon barrel arbor holder 30610 (1.0mm and 1.5mm), which is one of my favourite tools, but I can imagine running an oiler between the coil and the arbor could ease the process even more for those really stubborn situations 👍 -
On a Pultra 10 8mm lathe the the drilling is done by a tapered brass collet to fit the runner with a hole in to take the drill bit with a sleeve over to squeeze the collet to grip the drill bit , as carbide drill bits have all the same size shank you would only need to make one. Dell This is the tailstock -
As @Jon pointed out, it's a versatile tool whose range of uses seems to grow the longer you have it. I think it's the same principle as with a watchmaker's lathe (which I don't have)—the longer you own one, the more applications you discover. The last time I used my multitool was to create custom steel rods for manipulating anti-shock springs and dress one of my brass tweezers. 🤣

Thanks for posting your solution. It's posts like this which make this forum such a uniquely valuable resource for us hobbyists. That's clever and well executed. The part you made looks just as good as the original. -
As said, apply naphta to visible bearings and remove the battery to gain access to couple of palstic gears in gear train, use a tooth pick to turn them, to unfreeze the train. Submerging the whole movement in naphta for a couple of seconds wont hurt it. Regs
