I have to have a set of these knobs for my Sagittary! Please post a link? I couldn't find any and had to settle for brown face fenders!

By the way, I forgot to mention the finish on this is great! I did something similar with an old Dunlop Fuzz Face enclosure. I used a Black & Decker Mouse Sander with steel wool stuck to the bottom of it and used Flitz for the polish compound. After about 20 minutes, I got a mirror finish. Sanded to 800 by hand, then polished with the B&D Mouse!! HEHE!! Still looks nice. Something about sanding with polish seems to impregnate the metal, if the temperature gets somewhat warm. Probably have no idea what I am talking about, but the Fuzz Face box was done 3 months ago and it still shines bright!

Great looking Klone!!

The knobs are just black davies copies...I think I got them from PPP. Since oxblood knobs are nowhere to be found I just bought a can of maroon/burgandy spray paint from Walmart. I did three thin coats of paint and then three thin coats of a clear matte finish. So thin in fact you can just barely see the black showing through on the pointer. I held the knob with a dowel rod while painting, then let air dry. When the final coat of clear was dry, I baked them in an oven for a short time. So far they have held up good.


Good luck!

Thanks Luke. I named it after my son. After we named him, friends and family were relentless with the Star
Wars stuff. So I decided to call my Sunking the Master Luke.
