[Heathkit] Heathkit Lever Knobs Wanted

There are some excellent recreations being made and offered on eBay and I have bought a few already but I still prefer the originals if available. One main issue is the alignment of the knob on the CW/SSB switch. The original Heathkit knob uses a metal insert that goes on the shaft and then the knob is pushed on the insert. The knob can be removed and moved to another position on the insert for better alignment with the panel markings. The switch has very limited movement, if any for realignment.

A perfect idea. I love having the ability to 3D print replacement
parts for whatever it is I'm working on. This technology is awesome.
