    No worries, the OEM ones aren't stainless steel, either. They're "stainless appearance," i.e. plastic with a thin veneer of cheesy chrome plating that's about one molecule thick.

    You can electroplate 3D prints by using a basecoat of conductive spraypaint, and then the limit of the thickness of your plating is only really limited by your patience. Nickel is quite easy to do at home.

    I quite like electroplating with titanium. Can vary the voltage for some great colors too.

      Had to read like 50 comments and nobody pointed out you can just buy a generic knob for like $1. Hell your used building center would be 50 cents. WTF world do we live in where the solution is CAD and 3D printing for something so trivial. It's like using a nuclear bomb to kill an ant nest.

        Graphite powder is also quite flammable isn't it?

        I'm not sure, but with that much oxygen in the air I'm sure anything could "become" flammable, especially when atomized or turned into a powder. That's why grain silos on farms are fire hazards; the dust.

          I feel like this parallels the story about spending of $10 million to research and develop a Space Pen vs just using pencils.

            They'll get an even better deal then given the missing knobs! Or the store will just foot the bill for the replacement knob that they can probably get for less than the consumer price

                You can't put that in quotation marks like I ever said something about wasting time. You just have to include all that time in your cost calculation.

                Not really, no. If you're learning something not only that you like, but that it's also useful and that you will you use many times in the future, I wouldn't consider that to be part of the "cost".

                  I'm pretty sure baby carrots are prewashed.

                  Edit: Oh, perhaps you don't know this. In which case, I'd love to be the one to tell you: baby carrots are just cut up regular carrots.

                  Even if they're prewashed, they're lying in a crowded supermarket on display all day. You don't know who touched them and who sneezed on them, but you can know for a fact, someone did, and most people don't wash hands.

                      The B looks like the German ß which makes the s sound. That would make it say sake, which is a Japanese kind of alcohol.
