If someone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.


Mike Maghakian had them, but unsure if he has anymore.

I picked one of these up and it's a nice knob. Nice, heavy metal.
Feels good. What I really need now--and should have thought of
previously--is a nice felt washer to put behind the knob. This should
improve the action of the knob a lot.


Does anyone know of a good source for something like this?- Hide quoted text -

It seems like this would be easy to make for one's self...felt is a
dime-a-dozen at craft and fabric stores, in many different grades.- Hide quoted text -

That's good to know....I'll have to track down a craft store and check
it out. Thanks.
