Congratulations!

Don't forget that some Model Eights had off-white knobs.

Those look better than many other "fakes" I've seen.(Did you ever consider doing
breast augmentation?) Very nice work Jeff.

Nice job! I have been looking for a white knob for mine for a long time,
maybe there is hope.

What do you do about the spring-metal inserts that hold the knobs in place?

It would be easy to rob some from junk TV knobs.

Surprisingly enough, no insert required.
The way I molded the "inside" of the knob holds the shaft.
While not on super tight, they will not fall off.

A couple more pictures....

1. See if you can tell which one of the knobs isn't original.
(And no William, you can't take them off and check the backs)

2. I need to purchase some new dye. The white I had apparently
turned into a hockey puck in the jar and didn't color as well
as it should have. These are supposed to be off white, not cream.

The resolution of the photo of the black knobs isn't good enough to decide.

Of the white knobs, the main tuning knob isn't original, because the
original didn't have "slots" in the rim.

Frankly, they all look unoriginal, simply because they look too clean and
too good!

Those look real good . Could you reproduce those GE S22 radio handles ?
Even plastic painted gold would make many people happy .

The handle is in 2 pieces , the mounting and the loop .
