 Hey Fellas,
Well, long story short, my former roommate committed an 'unforgivable sin' by breaking the knob on my 1950 Frigidaire Electric range, not once, not twice, but THREE times. Each time, he swore it wouldn't happen again. Each time it broke again. The problem is that after being glued so many times, it won't hold together anymore. Here's a fresh shot from the first time breaking and what it's complete twin looks like. I do have a set off a higher model Frigidaire, but I'd like to keep the simplicity of the lower model look. Anybody have a spare?

Would that work on my O&M knobs? I've got some broken knobs on my O&M, wonder if that would work. Do the knobs on gas ranges get the same problems as valves on gas ranges, that is, get stiff with lack of lubrication? | ||

No, It's my unfortunate kitchen layout. My kitchen originally had a wall oven and stove top. The previous owners (flippers who owned the house 3 months) took out the wall oven and left a giant hole in the cabinets and tore out the section that contained the stove top. As you can see the stove and fridge are close together... My roommate threw open the fridge door and broke the knob... 3 times... Fool me once shame on you... Fool me twice shame on me... Fool me three times, I take off the knob off and we don't use that burner... Anyways, my roommate is gone now. If anyone has suggestions for padding or additional sources for spare knobs, I'm interested.
