Anyone want some new control knobs ?

gents,
I machined some new control lever knobs for my boat project as the stock ones were pretty haggered. I machined them out of black acetal (delrin) and while I was at it I used up all the material I had on hand in case someone else would like some. I figure I'd like to support the board as much as I can!
I have 25 knob assemblies left over but since there are 4 knobs per full set that makes 5 sets available. Just let me know and I'll send them out for free (first come first serve).

Natchamp, I sent a PM to you. Also quick question about your generator rebuild. I also have mine out and in the garage for service. Where did you get parts from , and was that white paint high temp.? Thanks again.

I got most of my parts from onanparts.com but below are some links to additional resources. For paint I just used rustoleum, they don't get "that" hot and rustoleum covers pretty good.

Acetal is pretty adverse to paint. It's slippery stuff, can't imagine anything sticking to it.

Sorry Mark, they all went pretty fast and I have given them all away.
