What does makeup have to do with this?
Rogue is not spelled rouge.
I think you replied to the wrong person. They know.
DM: Roll a D20 for a stealth check.
Rouge: I bat my eyelashes.
DM: Huh, I misread your character sheet. I'll allow it.
I feel like an artificer would be skilled in the application of rouge. As well as foundation and eyeliner.
*eyeliner
I simply pulled the knob off in the store & shoved the rest of the stove up my butt, later at home I printed the missing knob. It's a simple life-hack, basically everyone is doing it.

Still cheaper than getting a 3D printer and filament and stuff. And CAD/CAM software.
It's true that you should not expect to save money in the short or long run with 3d printing as a hobby, but if it's your thing then it's nice to have a hobby that's occasionally useful. Also, autodesk fusion is free for consumer use.
I wouldn't say I've made back my investment on 3D printing in the past half a decade I've done it. But in terms of "prints for friends" like this one above I may be close. Plus there's just something nice about going "I need a measuring cup for dog food" and printing one to the exact serving size.

Software is free if you aren't using it for commercial use. Fusion 360, onshape, etc. are all free for personal use. And that's assuming someone didn't make it already and share it free.
Filament costs $17 for 1kg of perfectly fine plastic. You'd probably use 100g at most for this, so $1.70.
A Bambu A1 mini is $200, and is a modern, high quality printer that would be fine for this project.
So you only need like a half dozen of these projects to come out ahead.
On software SIDE, kinda criminal not to mention FreeCAD, it's FOSS and runs on Linux, unlike the non-free freemium and paid alternatives
But it's got a long way to go before it's at usable as the others. Definitely not a good place to start learning cad.
No, it doesn't.
The recent 1.0 release is actually very good. It is probably better at this point than some of the entry level commercial options and most importantly compared to those is not intentionally hobbled in any way.
The time for everyone to stop parroting how "everyone knows" that FreeCAD is unusable is... now. You can go ahead and delete that one; it's time to learn a new soundbyte.

One doesn't buy a 3D printer to make a knob. One is suddenly presented with a need for a knob (or a thingy, or a flangle, or a twizzlet...) and suddenly remembers, "hey - I have a 3D printer." Followed by "I wonder if there are any matching designs in one of the several massive free databases of models."

YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A BOSCH OVEN KNOB
DON'T TELL ME WHAT I WOULDN'T STEAL
My oven is so old I came across an identical one in an e-waste pile behind a store. I stole the timer knob and mechanism so I don't need to keep using the broken one (manual only) anymore.
You didn't steal it, you 💫recycled💫.
*Reused, which is preferred to recycling even if the materials are 100% recyclable.
That's what I told to the store employee I encountered coming to work via the back door. He wasn't too happy but ultimately let me do it.
Imaging being mad someone is taking your trash.
Imagine getting mad someone is taking your employer's trash.
I'd eyeball the measurements in Blender and laugh at my crooked knob every time I use the stove.
I laugh at my crooked knob all the time.
I also laugh at it.
That's at least better than his wife. She laughs and points.
You're still putting too much work into this. Just heat up the metal shaft where the knob was with a torch and press any old hunk of thermo plastic onto it. Now you have janky done even more quick and cheap.
What about the old vice grips that are now a permanent part of the stove trick?
Nothing is more permanent than a temporary fix.

China mastered copying things well. A five pack of replacement knobs that actually match is $34 on Amazon. A crappy homemade knob for a $4000+ range is crazy.
China has also mastered modern slave labor. That someone makes thier own replacement instead of ordering some small uncomplicated part from across the globe isn't crazy, it's self-reliant and smart.
But that's, like, just my opinion man.

And Bosch makes and generally stands by their good products. Yeah they're a company, but they're not the worst!
Also, where did original knob go, I need to know.

I wish I had pockets big enough to replace the flimsy Bosch drawers in my fridge that start to shatter as soon as you pull just a tiny bit harder than normal.

How much did the printer and materials cost? Or the time to educate on cad and printing?
Just saying, it was likely far more money and time/effort than merely 12 cents.

There's a third, where the first person puts on thingiverse and we do it for fun without owning the actual unit
Channel locks, adjustable wrench, or plyers are also acceptable. Plus then ya know damned well where they are.
