Mystery control warping - Guest - 03-02-2009
My dialer on the mystery control is slightly warped - did anyone ever try to straighten one? Maybe by heating to a certain temp. and then pressing it between clamps and cooling it ? Any other ideas?
Thanks
Tom

I doubt you can--it's made of tenite, and that stuff shrinks and warps by nature.

It's been done, and apparently successfully, too. Details here:
