Movement keeps falling out of the casing ring

This is my first ever full service, and all of the actual movement servicing went great! But now I am re-assembling the watch and the movement keeps falling out of the casing ring… I’m at my wits end!! It’s an old Seiko with a 7009a movement. I’m setting the movement in the ring on my cushion (1st picture) then putting the case overtop of it and flipping the whole thing over very carefully. When I flip it the movement just falls out of the casing ring and bangs against the crystal. I’ve included photos of the movement,case, and ring as well. It feels so silly that this is what’s keeping me from completing the service… please help!!
