That's a good way to estimate the size too. Those are clear parts from the V8 kit right?

Correct. That is the cylinder head cap (part number 18) from the V8 kit.
They're just decorative greeblies like everything else inside the R3 dome. None of it has to do with droid function.
The correct vents are very similar to those found. Slightly different vent design and high shine/clear.
Wow, right under our noses! I wonder if this has the same bottom canister as the falcon oxygen masks? If so, looks like we have some reevaluating to do! Also, looks like a different greeblie atop the canister?
What do you think of this for the top knob? This is from the Michell turn table. I'd be happy to do a machined aluminum run of these if there's enough interest. The inside of this knob is threaded - Would it need to be threaded or solid?
Speak up and let me know, thanks! - Chad

I'd be in for one of these!
Is this the same knob posted by lonepigeon earlier on? The knurling/finish/top chamfering seem a hair different? Could just be lighting, though.
Looks the same to me. I got this knob from our own Kurtyboy. It dropped right into my Sparklets too

That's the same piece.
Is this part from the turntable sweep arm?
yes, see lonepigeon’s photo above!

UPDATE 10/13/2022- Eethan is going to take over the SPLIT CLAMPS & TWO TUBE 6 HOLE SHAFT portion of this run. I’m still having trouble finding a machinist that’s interested in doing small runs and Eethan makes beautiful parts and can do these pieces for the community! Keep an eye out for his...

I found some better reference of the red/orange piece that replaces the Sparklets cap.
It's also used on the medical droid FX-7.
(I left the V-8 parts and TC-67 tape corder button in there for scale)

Very cool!
Are you saying this knob is the red knob on the Sparklets top where the flip cap and such are removed?
I don't have any reference pictures saved that show it more clearly than this screenshot, but I thought it was actually the Sparklets knob painted red and relocated.
