Thanks for the response, but they're a bit pricey...Radioshack's good-looking knob was actually decent quality and only $2.99 for two...Too bad it was 1/2 inch too small in diameter.

Reminds me when the customer complained about our genuine GM parts prices...he said Auto Zone had the part for 1/2 the price of ours...but it didn't fit, so now he has to buy ours. Sometimes you get what you pay for.
Course you seem to be getting one free so I guess that does not apply here ;D
Can you post some pics of the finished product when its done?

I would suggest not buying them.
Keep an eye out for old equipment at garage sales and such. I found three for free at one time.

These knobs are cool, but at 1.25" they might be too small. Still someone might want to use them as a volume control. You can get them at Digikey.

I find that that they get that diameter measurement by including the size of the skirt...This makes them actually about .25 inches smaller than their advertised size...Also, beside Tempest, I'm not sure many spinner games had a skirt on their knobs.
