Overview:
These are modeled after the early style knobs. Some knobs are at half-height as I am planning on putting them under the dash and wanted them to be lower profile.
Process for those who want to make custom knows:
Download the blank STEP file and cut in your own icon,
You can find good icons to use via Noun Project: Free Icons & Stock Photos for Everything - https://thenounproject.com/.
Either import directly or use it as a guide for your own line art.
I normally try and make the line width 0.75mm wide and 0.50mm deep.
Notes:
Tap the base hole as M5 and the set screw hole as M4.
I use this for the set screw McMaster-Carr - https://www.mcmaster.com/93038A126/
Post Process and Paint Fill Process:
After Tapping the Knobs. I use a spare M5 Screw in a drill to chuck the knob.
I then use Novus 7136 Plastic Polish Kit starting at 3 up to 1 to get the surface a bit shinier.
For the colored paint Fill, I use Enamel paint meant for miniature model painting. I like H
