Default Re: Cloning vintage knobs

That broken knob isn't the first I've seed of its type, either. Not only is it a bad design, it is or was quite prolific. To think, someone was paid to design that. Makes you wonder... hardly seems like a saving in cost, as the nut had to be located in the Bakelite, just as David's concentric and far more durable brass insert is.
