Knobs needed for 20" x 24" saunders printing easel

[Paulaberliner]

I have a mint condition Saunders 20" x 24" printing easel that I want to sell. The knobs have disappeared.
I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me where to get the 4 original knobs that have the name
Saunders on them.

Take it to a good hardware store; they will likely have knobs to match.

I can barely lift it it's so heavy! Taking it to a hardware store is not feasible for me. But I'm looking for original knobs and unless
I can find them I'll sell it as is. It's still an impressive piece of equipment. Thanks for your thoughts.

Finding OEM knobs, is going to be difficult. If you are dead set that, I’d check with KHB Photografix (long shot), put an WTB ad here and on Photrio, and start watching EBay. As far as aftermarket knobs, I’d try my local hardware store and if I didn’t find them there ai would check McMaster Carr. I checked my Saunders 20x24 easel and the shaft is a 1/4” in diameter and the knob is approximately 1 5/8” in diameter and just over 3/4” tall. It has a brass sleeve molded into the knob with a set screw. Shouldn’t be to hard to aftermarket knobs.
