A handful of knobs

Yeah yeah I figured it was a catchy title.

Anyway, Im after 6 of these knobs. The knob part is stamped sheet metal and it threaded part is actually a carriage bolt that fits into the knob.

Any leads on these would be most appreciated.

Thank God! For a moment when I saw the title, Jordan, I thought you were looking for some cheap labour. :D

Jordan, what are these used on? Look pretty antique, you might have to cast your own from epoxy etc depending on what sort of strength is required. If they are more for aesthetics I wouldn't see any issue. Maybe even solid cast?

These are from the Wire-3 truck. This particular one was used to secure the table to the box. Two with shorter threaded parts were used on the table for securing the sliding top.

I thought about solid casting some. But thought to put the word out of anyone recognized them from something else.

Jordan, as with most things CMP these were at the time, likely some off the shelf part that had some other use. When I first started on cmp trucks I made many of the small fitments, only to find that many were still available, just needed to know where to look :doh:

Hence why I am asking.

Jordan, they look like old appliance/furniture leveling feet I've seen.

The same thing came to my mind.... Maybe check out the local appliance graveyard.
