[Hallicrafters] Re: New Knob Maker

[~DA~]

Hi,

I should probably clarify something here, I have never
made knobs before just a bunch of "garage kits" my
friend does. He has part of his shop dedicated to this
stuff. I have never bought the mixes as he already has
the goo and the silicon. I know what to do just having
worked with it and listening to him tell me what to do
and what's worked for me. This stuff is messy.

These sites deal with model and kit making, but the
info about working with resin is relevant. It doesn't
matter whether it's a dinosaur, knob, or meter housing
- it's the same.

Hope this clears up the how-to's

Best Regards,
Douglas
