Aluminum Knobs from Mouser

Post by altitude »

So I went with the eagle ones from Mouser since they looked good in the drawing and thankfully they look excellent:

The set was $25.

0.5" : PN# 450-6003
0.75" : PN#450-6005
Dial: PN#450-MCB71

They all also come in black

Working on some bushings to get these to fit better on the D shaft and the case is not ready yet but here's a naked pic:

Where are your LED spacers??

How do they not fit quite right? Are they too wide for the D Shafts?

Yup. D shafts are 6mm and the knobs are for a 0.25" shaft. Already found a solution though, I machined some bushings that make a tight fit
