My fine tuning knob on my ct-100 is broke, as many seem to be. Does anyone know anyone that repairs these knobs?

Bob, I don’t have access to any of that equipment. Would you be willing to repair mine?

I had Bob repair mine, and the aluminum neck won't ever snap like the original plastic. Highly recommended!

I never heard back from this guy. I suspect he did not realize that you have to pay the going rate, for the kind of high quality, custom repair service I provide. Or perhaps he just decided to continue using the shitty original broken RCA knob. Who knows?

Bob, sorry, I got super busy and forgot to get back with you. I decided to try and make my own repair. 1-1/4” brass drain pipe is an exact fit to the fine tuning shaft mechanism.
