Mystery Control
#7

I'm sure he could, but the demand is very small, like most unique castings in the antique radio hobby. The initial setup costs wouldn't be recouped by selling only a few. Economy of scale bites you with this kind of repro. Not sure where a break-even point would be, but I'd guess you'd have to sell many dozens before profit shows and payback on initial costs is covered.

Also the center "screw cover dome" and finger-stop would need to be reproduced as well to achieve proper color match . . .
