As I started building the radio set for my L-4, one of the items that I was having a hard time to make, and make it look real were some of the knobs. After looking through my collection of storage boxes I came across the answer. The top of a wire nut was the answer.
Wire nuts come in all sizes and shapes. Just cut the top off of one and glue it to a toothpick. The radios are about finished and ready to be installed.

Post another pic of them with something to show scale, like a quarter, or piece of a ruler. Those look damn good. Are you gonna have the trailing antenna and take-up reel also?

Well as with some of the other scale items I have done there will be instructions down the road on my site. I’m in the process of finishing the prints up to build the ¼ scale L-4 I wanted it true 100% scale. I don’t know when I will get to it but it will be down the road. I will also have the radio face plates available for sale. I have put several hours in just drawing the face plates.
