Franken project - installing hands, help needed

[edgematic1]

Hey guys,

I'm at my final stage of building my franken. I've bought some gen hands which were lumed to match the dial. While I'm trying to install the hands a problem occured. I don't seem to be able to install the minute hand.
Here a few photos, what's wrong, what am I doing wrong?

Many thanks for your input.

Looks like the wrong hand (too large for pinion).

+1 what Freddy said.

What movement are you using?

Thanks guys. I'm using a 1530 cal. Will search for a correct hand.

If it's only just a little too big you can try to slightly squeeze the "tube" a bit.

"I've bought some gen hands which were lumed to match the dial."

 You might have a 3035 minute hand or maybe someone broached the hand, but there may not be enough metal around the hole to do that.

1530, 1570, 1575 etc.
80-120-20

3035, 3135

Yeah, that would be a bit much to "squeeze..."
