[Oldie Goldie]

As luck would have it, the terrible thrift store i live fairly close to dumped another load of stuff people kindly donated to them at the curb to be picked up by the trash smasher.

A very upscale 1990s television cabinet made of very thick particle board.
It was meant to hild a tv in its shelf, and have doors that open and project the tv out on a trey which swivels. I dont need to remind anybody here how heavy a 20"+ CRT must be and how beefy all of the construction had to be to hold that thing and slide it out on its platform thing.

But it had all polished brass knobs and hinges and screws.
I grabbed four sets of the solid brass knobs for upgrading my crap at home.

But i realized instead of blowing $40+ on a pair of chrome Delco Buick Sonimatic 1948 knobs, i expermibtally drilled out the hole in one of these brass knobs.
Not bad!
Epoxy in a D shaped spring clip and im good to go!
