Coleman Stove Control Knob
A broken stove control knob shouldn't sideline otherwise good Coleman equipment, and with a decent sample to work from it usually doesn't have to. With your sample on the bench this is a realistic reproduction job.

Why these break
Control knobs split at the valve stem. UV exposure breaks down the polymer chains in the original material. By the time the surface looks chalky or faded, the strength underneath is already gone.
How we reproduce them
Reproducing one is straightforward for us: we measure your sample (broken is fine, as long as most of it is there), match the profile, and print in a tougher modern material. Turnaround is usually within the week.
We print these in ABS. ABS matches the look and feel of the factory plastic, takes a sanded or textured finish well, and handles everyday warmth without complaint.
As with everything in our library: whether a part can be reproduced depends on size, load, heat, material, and having a decent sample to work from. Send photos first — the assessment costs you nothing, and we'll tell you honestly if a genuine spare is the better option.
