Hello all,
	Many thanks to all of you responding to my question about white 
inserts on Viking knobs.  I've complied a list of all possible 
solutions suggested and they're all very good.  Perhaps these will 
help someone else restore their Viking knobs.  In no particular order 
or preference here are the replies:

1.  Swizzle sticks from cocktail drinks served on airlines......W8ZR
2.  Small plastic rods available from www.smallparts.com ....W0YVA
3.  Delrin robs (3/32")available at full service hobby stores.....K4OAH
4.  Small yard warning flags (white sticks) ..........................W8MNQ
5.  Repair kits available 6 per pkg. .....................................K9STH
6.  Plastic q-tip sticks or white sewing needles....................KD2E
7.  Plastic sticks by the bag from hobby stores...................K5JWK
8.  3 legged "pizza stools" used to keep lid from pizza ........N0XY

And this is why it's so important to belong to and list questions to 
reflectors.  What a great source information.  Thanks to you guys my 
Viking Valiant will look pristine and great beside my Drake 
2-B!  Thank you all for the great ideas.
