oops, i didn't realize the pics would be that big :facepalm:

They come in different sizes: http://www.kilointernational.com/knobs/ ... eries.html

The smallest ones are a half inch in diameter, which I believe is fairly standard.

$5 each?!

I think I've been spoiled by the 50 cent knobs at surplus electronics shops. The other day I hesitated to pay $2 for 3 knobs, but then I realized I'd never seen them before. Check them out!
