In the thread "Inexpensive Rolandesque spline knobs from Thailand", on
7th August, Andre Majorel suggested some knobs which I am now happy to
use for my TR-808 modifications: http://www.firstpr.com.au/rwi/tr-808/

The knobs are P570-H Re'an:

I bought the last two green ones, and I see they no longer list green.
Does anyone know where else to get these?

I found them a rather tight fit on the Tiawan Alpha pots (from Jaycar,
such as:

I fixed this by heating a pot, held in a vise, with a hot-air gun and
then forcing the knob onto it.  This made it easier to get the knob onto
the pot it belongs to.
