224678 What are the black knobs called that are shown on this feather board (mental block)? I need to get some similar to these for a totally different type application. Thanks, Sean

Rockler calls them "5-Star Jig Knobs". Here's a link (http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=25167&rrt=1).

if you make a lot of jigs or whatever and need several of those knobs, you might try this kit from Rockler

You can also make them out of hard wood.

I made one with a golf ball. Just drill and put threaded insert.

McMaster Carr has just about anything in that realm if you can't find exactly what you want somewhere else.

Whenever I throw out an old tool I always pull all he knobs off of it and throw them in a drawer. Always have some on hand that way.

Old tools had way cooler knobs....
