For all you perfectionists... This beautiful PDP-11/70 replica Oscar created has only one less-beautiful spot: the two knobs on the right hand side. I found "Guitar Pedal Knobs" on Amazon that are very close in appearance to the DEC knobs. They are called "DaierTek KN-19/Black" and come in a box of 12 for around eight dollars. They fit perfectly on the encoders and have the same base diameter as the knobs Oscar includes in the kit. See "before and after" below.

There is another thread in the PiDP-11 group that mentions those knows and the 3D printed ones as well.  Here are my 3D printed ones... pidp11_knobs_1024.jpg
