Just think, with that Admiral you could have a Bar and a Fishtank all in one!
Just kidding of course, it looks very elegant in black.

Like freshly polished brass buttons on a blue blazer.

On mine, i cut off the end of a control shaft, chucked it into a drill, and spun polished them in no time flat. Works wonders with other type control knobs as well.

That is a great idea! I did mine with the old toothbrush. Each one took about 10 minutes.

Great idea, Bob. And if you have a small drill press, you can use that and have hands free. I used that with my HH Scott knobs as well.
