DIY molded knobs.

[jan737]

Hi there,

Is there somebody who can tell me how to make my own molded knobs, for my Boeing 737NG.
I'm thinking about to use polyester resin and a hardener, so that I can mold my own knobs. I have one original knob that I'll use as example and make a print in clay or some thing similair.

Any ideas?


Kind regards

Jan Geurtsen.

hello,

self made knobs are very easy to make. Please send me an e-mail, then I´ll give you the adress of a german supplier of the right components.

Please calculate for 1 kg of silicon plastic for the moulding tools 33 Euro and for the PU plastic 1kg round about 15 Euro.

The material spec (in german):

1. Silikonkautschuk Abformmasse (2k, kondensationsvernetzend, pastös) 1kg mit Härter ca. 33€

3. Abgußwerkstoff: PU Gießharz 2k for big volumes und thick walls 1kg ca. 15€.

regards Ralf
