that addressed the problem . cloning vintage knobs Wesley Treat's channel had this video. 

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNBHtlhlHF4       10 min. video was very cool had some things to buy but the quality of the repair and the "original " look it gives right down to the small scratches was very impressive  for the do it yourself kinda person.

I agree, restorations can really be tough at times. Finding and recreating vintage parts are near to impossible.  Why I never throw out old electronics.

That was an excellent video. Thank you for posting it. I never seen that one. His style is fun to watch.
