Method of manufacturing an improved knob by injection molding

A method of manufacturing an improved resilient knob by injection molding comprising the steps of:

• forming a generally cylindrically shaped knob body having an elongated cavity having a plurality of knife edges formed therein, the cavity extending to and terminating at a terminal exterior surface of the body located approximately at mid-point from top of said body;
• forming an elongated extension projecting from the terminal exterior surface of the body;
• and extending outwardly beyond the terminal exterior surface of the body;
• forming a resilient projection on the extension spaced from said exterior surface, extending outwardly from the extension and having a tapered portion formed on a distal end of said extension remote from said cavity;
• forming said knife edges for biasing the extension in the direction of the projection;
• and
• forming said tapered portion integrally formed near the end of the extension.
