Does anyone know of a good place to source these?
They seem pretty expensive on fleabay

While I haven't seen that particular knob, I've noticed that there are a stack of suppliers on AliExpress selling a variety of knobs at pretty good prices. I ordered a couple of different types today.

No probs, Goran.

The seller lists them as 4's but if you contact them, they'll create an amount for you and you buy it now.

I got 50 for £9.58 + £6.19 postage. They're  really good quality too.

That's actually closer to £16

Thanks man! I'll put in an order for 20 to see how they work out.

Have you tried them on smooth shaft pots?

No, I use them on knurled shafts. They're not grub screw ones, push fit. Nice and snug though.

Very cool. I've been looking for a replacement for those crappy Davies 1900H that strip if you look at them wrong

I know what you mean. I always seem to have issues with those Davies ones.. I seem to over tight them and break the screw thread or they stick.

Nice looking build Vince. Mind if I ask where you source the 6.5mm and  DC sockets.
