Forgot to say before, I didn't know convergence pots could just up and quit because they seem pretty sturdy and aren't moved much. I have a few from a set I couldn't save, but I kept them mostly for their knobs. I don't see a way to separate the knobs, but I had one break off in another set. It was discolored, probably decayed by heat. If any more had broken I probably would have replaced the pots. A small screwdriver was sufficient in this case.
