Has anybody 3D printed a radio knob for a 65 Fury?

[NeverTooLateToRegress]

I just bought a Fury and am missing a radio knob and want to find a replacement, I figured getting a shop to make me one from a 3d file might be the way to go but I don't have 3d printer (yet). Anyone attempted it?

Thanks, been awhile since I've been on Ebay so I have to get back in the habit of thinking that way.

I don't buy as much as I used to on eBay, but it's still a decent source for the oddball bits and pieces.

I may have what you need. Which one? Inner or outer?

No, but here are photos of back, front and side views.

It looks like Big John's post is the right type along with some other knobs. Darn it, now I'm gonna have to get an Ebay acc't.

Well, I offered $21 and it got accepted and now some knobs are heading my way. I guess somebody else must have offered $20. According to Google AI, they normally go for $19 to $30 in used condition and up to $65 in NOS mint condition. But, Big John is right, far cheaper route to take. I think the large items are for the base of the knobs so it's good to have spares laying around.

Oops, I didn't see your post, Sixpactogo...

FYI - 66 Fury radio knobs were all chromed, and 65 Fury radio knobs while physically identical have an argent silver finish sprayed in the middle. Easy to do if you find a 66 knob.

Thanks, I tried looking up argent silver and google AI hits me with a video on how to make a resin mold and mix in metallic powder from a company named EnvironMolds. They don't carry the argent silver but have stainless steel and aluminum powders. Not sure how well they turn out but it might be an interesting option.

To answer your question if anyone has attempted it, yes, and here is the online article. It’s a ‘67 Satellite knob.

Mine are 65. Metal with the Argent silver inset and a set screw. PM me if you don't get what you need.

 

[NeverTooLateToRegress]

Huh, interesting. Mine have a metal insert that wedges into a split rod and that's how it's held in place.

You are correct. I thought I grabbed the right one. This must be a for the wiper switch or something else. Will get back to you.

What brand of wheels are those? I like the black spokes with chrome lips or whatever it's called.
