Knobs

I went to the garden show at Southend on Monday.
(not my usual bank holiday enjoyment, but the mother-in-law has a stall and it gave me an excuse to give the wedge a blast).

In one of the marquees there was a wood turner. I took my cracked and rather sad looking gear knob in for him to have a look at, and he reckons he can make me one out of walnut for about 10 quid - RESULT !!!

Think there are a few of us interested in a knob replacement due to excessive wear.. can you post details once done.. mines even gone all floppy and won't stay in fixed position anymore and the gear sticks not looking good either..

Due to meet the guy again at athe end of this month so I shall let you know.
(sorry to hear that yours has gone floppy by the way).

Cheers Carl, been searching for a replacement for ages - the one that seemed to fit the bill was the momo anatomico tall wood but according to all the stockists (both here and USA) - it's no longer made by momo and therefore if you see it on a website it is likely they forgot to take it off - looking forward to the day when mine won't wobble around all over the place!..
