Wheres a good place to find real 767 sized knobs? I could go generic 747 or 737, but that isnt "as real as it gets"

I'm a bit hesitant, since hes out in europe and I only need one knob to make my own mould.

I'm looking for each of the different knobs in the 767, I want to copy them and make my own.

Do you know if they are going to sell me one of each for a reasonable price?

If you state that you want to make copies...I doubt it!!!
Otherwise why not.

Nothing from Korry is going to be cheap! They qouted just the korry lens "speed brakes armed", not the electronics...... over $400.00. You'll be better off tring to find knobs from avionics shops or parts distibutors and expect $75 up "per" knob, and thats a dream price. I had southwest parts shop see what they paid for it and it was $364 ea if they bought 3. No deals from them unless you got an insider IMHO

Wow, thats crazy money for the korry's. Do you know of any parts distributors that would sell a couple of knobs at a time? I might be interested in purchasing real knobs, then selling some knobs I make to cover my costs.

Hi guys,

Any idea for covers for the momentary switches sold by FDS. ideally round. They are for the recall /cancel panel on the 767 eicas.
