Source for these knobs? Voodoo lab style

[John Lyons]

These are similar to the Voodoo lab knobs but mine are 50's 60's vintage.
I have a few left but I love them and will need more eventually.
I like the fact that they are a large diameter yet low profile.



Any ideas? Do tell.

Thanks

I got some very like that from Mouser a few years ago. Don't know if they've still got 'em in the catalog.

Why don't they all just make the kind of knobs I like in vast quantity, cheap and sell them in a place only I know about.

Gotta tell you, that's some very sweet looking work you do.

Any way you can post a pic of the ones you got?
Mouser has those little graphical pics but they are different in real life... Then I will know for sure..then look at mouser to see if they still have them.

Thanks (for the compliment as well)

the prices are great, just don't tell the 'boutique amp supply guys"
they have the knob you want on this page for under 90 cents each if you buy 10 pcs or more:

The pic looks like a series of Mil-spec knobs that Davies Molding has been making forever. I would like to carry the style you mentioned and I'll try to find them.

Hey Joe Gagan,

Dude, we need to talk.  I'm still sitting on some bad paper that needs to be taken care of.  Don't even tell me you forgot about it. Email me.  I emailed you through the address listed on your profile but got no response.  Since you're posting here again I have no recourse but to openly post this "little reminder" in hopes that you will finally take care of business, just as I stated in my email to you.

uh-oh joe... your in trouble....(not that I know anything about this...)
Thanks for the link joe, I'll check that out.

The knobs pictured are off old test equipment and are daka-ware branded. about 1.25" in diameter.

Steve, that would be cool if you can find a source for them, you seem to find everything else!!!!!!

Uh, scratch that Mouser suggestion. Try page 684 of the current Allied catalog.

I bought a bunch of those from colin raffel.  Experamentalists anonymous chap.  I think he is out now though.  and they were the push on kind, no set screw.

[John Lyons]

Looks like the same knob to me mark, Thanks for posting that.

I have done my homework. These are Davies Molding #1500. Nice knob...I should have stocked them a long time ago, but I will take of it now. The interesting question is whether I can get Davies to make these in colors, or whether I will have to go to China like I did for the #1510. Davies is very good for the things they do make, but very difficult to deal with for anything that's "not on the menu." I was surprised when their rep said that they would do those Red and White Chicken-heads. Sometimes it pays to ask.
