[Heath] heathkit parts

[Neil Morrison]

I suspect he tried casting them?

I did 10 years in a plastic parts factory and I've seen (almost) every way to try to make cheap molds or cheap parts. 

Few of them ever worked OK.

And....somewhere in the world are the molds that made those dials...(they are manufacturable, as at least Heathkit made them....).....and if whoever has them would make a small run of 500 or so, he'd have quite a business...for what it's worth, there was a fellow in North Carolina who started making them...I want to say about 15 years ago...I bought a couple, but his quality was poor and they didn't work well....
