Default Menu knob production version

This is the final design, printed in Protopasta matte fibre PLA which gives quite a nice 'almost injection moulded' surface. The only flaw is the top surface where the layered nature of FDM printing is evident in the gentle curve. It's a tight push fit on to the spindle.
