Hi! I hope Someone can help me! I have a Durst 1800 Enlarger. It has a 7 foot high rectangular column and two large "Feet" at the base. I recently moved by my Mover was very clumsy and damaged it. I originally purchased this unit from Durst-Pro USA but that company is long gone. I need, if someone has, the long scale mounted on the right side of the unit. Its for getting a sense of the position of the Head and the Easel Base. 2nd and most important I need the black control knob on the Left hand side of the unit. It locks or unlocks the "Tilt" of the head and the position of the Lens stage. Mine was shattered! I have Some photos but if more are needed, please let me know! Thanks you!

The L1840 had the scale mounted on the front of the column. You might try that.
Also, McMaster Carr has some large knobs that might be adapted.

Hi! My scale is fine. The long "L" bracket made of Aluminum was severely bent. My scale mounts on the right side of the enlarger but the scale faces forward. The knobs you showed look okay but I need on that is Splined. Not sure how to measure that and I can't measure how many splines it has. They are very fine. If you know of any enlarger parts suppliers I would appreciate that. I tried Glennview. No good. Thank you!
