Those are smaller (13 mm diameter), I think those used by Pickdropper are 15 mm. They might be 45KN031 Eagle knobs, available from mouser.

They are definitely different than the ones from small bear, which I'm not really a fan of. Too tall/thin and a lot of the ones I've revieved are slightly scuffed/aged in spots. These ones look great! I'll look into the ones at mouser...

aesthetically perfect. You take the face plates to a new level.

Thanks guys.

The knobs are Eagle and most definitely were sourced from Mouser.  If anybody wants, I can look up the part number when I get home.

Thanks Dave! I think croquet hoop was right but a confirmation would be cool!

Here is the data sheet from mouser:

Lots of cool stuff on there!

Croquet Hoop nailed it.  They are 45KN031.

I have some black ones as well.  Mouser PN: 450-7031.

Hats off, sir. You are an artist.

How did you make the faceplate? It's such a beauty, I'd like to try something like that  one day

It is a reverse laser-etched acrylic plate.  Painted from the backside, etched backwards, then flipped and installed.

Does the laser do the outside cutting? If not, how do you get those perfectly rounded corners?

Yep, the laser cut the outside as well as all of the holes for the pots, switch and LED.

I've found I have to run the etch (raster) and cut (vector) operations in the same job or things get out of alignment.  That shouldn't happen, but for some reason it does.  I haven't figured that out yet.

Nice! I know what I want for Christmas.
