Made this back in 2015. The apartment I had at the time had steam radiators (USA, circa 1920's) with original wooden knobs--one of those was broken. I couldn't find a replacement locally or online, so I took up the challenge of modelling one myself in SketchUp that would fit the original keyed plate that the wood knobs mounted to. I paid ~~entirely too much~~ at the time to have it printed at a local print farm, but, it fit like a glove! I later realized that I could have bought a suitable, albeit generic, replacement from Home Depot for less than $10. I hope that this has held up well and that the new residents appreciate my custom solution.
