Re: [VAC] Jury Rig of Window Cranks

[Gary Quamen <gquamen@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dr. Huff:

I had a couple of loose ones and here's what I did:

Originally one end of the knob was put through a hole in the crank and 
then squashed down or "riveted" to fix it in place.  On mine, I took a 
punch of the appropriate diameter (a bolt) and, with the end of the knob 
supported adequately (garage floor? anvil?) repunched the head of the 
"rivet".  

Worked for me.  

Just start out kind of gingerly, and make sure that the knob still turns 
in the hole while increasing the snugness of the fit.  Doesn't take much.
