Re: 57 SPOTLIGHT TOM ISSUES
You shou check the size of the nob. If its a small 1/2" nob, it will be hard to find one. If its approx 1" then just ask me. 35 shipped

Re: 57 SPOTLIGHT TOM ISSUES
Cundog, I believe the "rod" you're talking about is a large rivet. Ater the felt was removed or broken off, the rivet slid down in the hole over the years and is now frozen in place. To fix this, you'll need to drill out the old rivet and find a new one to match. Or, try someting like WD 40 and see if you can free it up. You then may be able to push the new felt over the top of the rivet.

Re: 57 SPOTLIGHT TOM ISSUES
Okay, guys. I have the rivet out and loose. Now, I have realized, that yes, the rivot was broken off. Also, it appears to be solid. Now having used rivets I know I usually use a rivet gun. This is much larger and solid. Did they hammer the one side down once it was put through? thanks fro the advise.

Re: 57 SPOTLIGHT TOM ISSUES
Hey, Rogers dudes. I forgot to let you know that I did manage to get the rivot out and used an anvil and a hammer to redo the same rivot. I glued the felt back on and it works like a charm. Thanks guys.
