    some guy on the mpc forum used aluminum knobs pulled from an old tascam DAT deck on his 1k. so cool.

    gives me ideas about what i might be able to achieve with the metal lathe i have access to; and a person who is a metal lathing ninja. custom one-off knobs would be the bees knees. maybe make some limited sets and sell them if they are nice enough?

    • i also have access to a milling machine, hmmm...prophetone
    • time to start designing a snazzy e-commerce site lol. with lots of 'pop'.prophetone
    • why not just buy new knobs? tons available. milling while unique, seems excessivealbums
    • because it's about making something with my bare hands not convenience, like a manprophetone
