Make Your Own Replacement Knob Using a 3D Printer
Meet the Newest (And Perhaps Most Powerful) Tool in the Workshop
When the knob on trusty veteran gas grille broke, I tried in vain to locate a replacement. Then, one day, at a local tech entreprenuers' meeting I met Brian Davis, an enthusiastic, early adopter of 3D printing technology. He suggested we "print" the knob. Intrigued, I invited him to the shop to show me how it was done.
