Easel Project

I got these solid brass knobs from Lowe’s. All the knobs they had were machined for small screws so I looked for a solid type that could easily be drilled and tapped out to support a larger, stronger screw to hold up that big shelf. So to make these knobs work , I first wrapped the knob in a rag so I didn’t scratch the finish, I then locked it into a vise and simply drilled a larger hole and retreaded the new hole with the proper tap. It worked out really well.
