Need to take out the knobs of the tuning dial of a PHILCO RADIO Model 38-10
#2

You take the big outer knob with the thumb and the index finger, wedging them between the knob and the cabinet, and pull. Both knobs will come off.
Stand right in front, so if the smaller knob flies out, you stop it with your gut.
Preferably standing on a soft floor, so if it falls, it does not break.
Sometimes it requires some effort, but it is rarely too large.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
