Hey all-
I have been using 1/4”/6.35mm smooth shaft PCB Mount Alpha pots in my first 3 builds (from Tayda), and ordering 1/4”/6.35mm knobs w set screws to match from various shops, and most of the knobs do not fit on the shafts..... Of the 6.35mm knobs I’ve tried, only 2 of 5 types actually fit over the 6.35mm shafts. The others can’t get more than halfway on (as seen in pic).
Have any others run into this? Am I doing something wrong? I’m mainly frustrated with the Davies 1510 and MXR 6.35mm not fitting as those would be my main go-to’s. Shouldn’t 6.35mm knobs fit on 6.35mm shafts?
