The new volume control has arrived and works very well. Perfect fit too.
It's just temporarily wired in here as I still need to cut the shaft down.

I also installed the new arch support. Before gluing I painted with this very flat camo paint. It's a great match for the old dark interior wood.

The arch is far stronger now and that's a big load off my mind.
Sorry about the blurry photo. Bad lighting in the basement.
