Number of 9mm pots for a 125B enclosure

[JamieJ]

I have a build in mind that I want to put together a PCB for. I want to use a 125B in a vertical position. I am working today and haven’t got my laptop to check if the spacing would fit. Would it be possible to fit 4 9mm pots in a row with the smallest knobs I can find?

If not I’ll have to use a 1590BB in a vertical position.

Well, if you can fit 3 16mm ones in a row it should be possible to fit 4 9mm ones since the total space is 48mm vs 36mm? You’d need to look at the specific part tho.

Four 9mm pots in a row in a 125B. 10mm and 13mm knobs.
Two types of potentiometers.

@JamieJ you need those small bear micro knobs

The problem is I love a good aluminium knob (insert sniggering here). I think I’m going to make it up in a vertical 1590BB instead.

I'm with you on that

The Madbean glitchee has 4 across and its a little tight for my fingers with the lil davies. If it is something you plan to interact with a lot, you're probably heading in the right direction with the bigger enclosure.
