thanks guys for the super fast replies 😀

If you or anyone for that matter want a certain tutorial on a certain type of knob then let me know and I'll try and get it together as soon as I can.

My personal plug-ins resembles what is listed in the video below. This is why I seek large Art Deco knobs. As you can see the knobs are not large enough for the design.
