Question: does anyone know if the Scubapro 109, G200, G250 adjustment knobs are machined from one piece of brass? I’m thinking not.

I have a 109 with a knob separated from the shaft. Need to dig it out to look a little closer.g200 doesn't have an adjustment knob...
anyhow, I'd recon that they are as I've never seen one come apart, and the tendency to bend and not break makes me feel a bit stronger in that opinion...
Unfortunately I don’t have a G200. I was just thinking when someone upgrades their G200 to a balanced reg is the plug used for adjustment? If so could an external knob be made to replace the plug.No, complete different air barrel assembly to upgrade a g200 to a g250.
Was talking with @Geo7 and an idea came up to include a micro adjuster but the thought was the retainer clip may limit the size of the adjustment knob.As far as I know, the original knobs were machined out of a single piece. Are you volunteering for another project? :-D
I.e. something like this custom Apeks knob, but for a 109/BA/G250?
