They look very similar to the George Knight handles on the DC16?

I am also looking for parts for an much older press, I bought from a business that was closing. The analog thermostat/control seems to be gone. It just goes to maximum temperature.

Perma Trans Products Heat Press PT-80

Anyone know where I can pick up a generic part that might work?

This is the shot of the front of the top platen.

The knob has alot of play in it.. and I can't seem to control the heat from going straight to the hottest.

Hi, I haven't seen anything similar to that before?

There will probably be a simple (ish) electrical component in there. It may be worth speaking to an electrician or similar

By day I'm an electrical engineer, the knob could just be loose on the spindle or if it is a potentiometer (variable resistor) the carbon tracks inside could be worn away, either way it should be simple to fix, it should have some details stamped on it, most electronic suppliers will have those parts.
