Re: Knob and dial to upgrade your Shakespeare bust

Originally, the bust had the small lens and was replaced by the large lens by the next time it was seen. The small lens only appears again later when the footage was reused.

Re: Knob and dial to upgrade your Shakespeare bust

That is the right lens, but the original mount was press-fit with a smooth edge, not screw-on. I'm looking into having them manufactured as the correct version is rare.

Re: Knob and dial to upgrade your Shakespeare bust

Whatever you have, strip it down until there is just a hole. Insert a rotary switch (reuse original, if possible) add dial plate, add switch's nut to secure switch and dial, add knob and secure with set screw.

Thanks, Andy!

The knob is meant to be mounted to an existing rotary switch.
