Looks like your knobs are dovetailed in too, pretty slick. Now all you need is a separate cabinet for all of you Time-Sert/Heli-Coil/whatever thread insert kits.
@Tonyg has done a good description of what serial taps are - they're really useful for difficult materials - see my reply to @Toolmaker51 . Yes: the knobs (and the labels) are dovetailed in: that allowed me to print them in the correct orientation (for gravity). I was pleased with how well the dovetails fitted together.

I've got all my thread insert kits (mostly v-coil kits) in a drawer of a "Bisley" drawer unit at the moment - now you're giving me ideas that could keep the printer going for another week or two.
