    Dear Jan, I wonder if you possibly have a watchmaker's staking set?
    They are used for several different tasks in watchmaking/repairing,
    though I have used some of the tools for the occasional jewelry
    repair job- flairing a bezel, tapping down a bezel evenly on
    diamond, reshaping a cup to better fit a pearl, etc. I did not ever
    learn watchmaking, but my husband did and could probably explain
    their actual uses much better than I. I'm sure we have some other
    watchmakers out there that will probably step up and fill you in. If
    not, e-mail me and I will have my husband respond. 

    Take care all. Brenda Mason City, Iowa, where it is down to zero
    degrees and the kids are anxiously awaiting Christmas!
