Michael,
Ok. I wrote because Chuck Harris recently posted a method for repairing the plastic part of a knob and then melting the aluminum core back into the knob.
I think that there are master parts lists for various categories of Tektronix parts available online, perhaps on this forum. Having been involved in moving for about a year, I haven¡¯t paid much attention to them but perhaps they list the instruments which use each part. I know that there is a parts list for knobs; search the forum for ¡°rpr¡±.

Dave,
Appreciate the reply. The plastic outer "knob" has broken off the aluminum hub. So I still have the aluminum part of the knob attached to the shaft. This is the typical old TEKTRONIX knob failure. At this point, this is purely cosmetic, but for aesthetic reasons, I would like it to be a good knob.
