Hi All
Would anybody know where these antique white control knobs might be available please?
or could anybody know how wide the base is?
Thanks Ray

I've seen quite a few of those creamy white knobs with the ribbed sides on EBay from time to time, as they were pretty common on fifties & sixties audio appliances.
It's worth searching there amongst the 'job lots'.

Hi Dave
I have done lots of searches before posting , They are called cupcake knobs with pointer.
I have found a few for sale but its the base diameter/width i would like to know if any body has one
so the pointer sits just inside the gold ring, ones currently ready available on ebay are 25.5 mm
which are to big.

Thanks for that Laurence yes i had seen them the larger one of the two is 25.5mm which i think is to large pushing the pointer outside the gold
ring on the Meazzi i might send off for one just to check
Thanks for your time Ray
