Knob repair

[gonzo]

A couple of years ago my band saw fell off of my pickup. A knob on it was broken and I have only now repaired it.
I cut the threaded stud out of it and manufactured the knob part.
I could have just purchased a new knob at a fraction of the $10 I spent on aluminum, but it was the exercise that mattered.

Great job! Now you'll have to polish the rest of the machine.

I wouldn't call it a repair. It's definitely an upgrade!
