hi guys, i'm looking for an alternate source for the little green alpha pcb mount 9mm pots. i ordered some of these from mouser, but when they arrived there was no threaded portion at the base, making them none to useful for my build. i would normally go to small bear, but that doesn't appear to be an option for the time being. any secret spots that i'm unaware of?
 
thanks guys! i could have sworn i scoured tayda already, but there they are plain as day. ???‍♂️
maybe i shouldn’t do all of my parts orders at 2am when i’m exhausted
 
One thing to keep in mind. If you want the threaded portion you need to be sure and NOT order the ones with plastic shafts. These were meant to be more of a through panel trimmer. They do make them with the 1/4” shaft. Unfortunately Smallbear was my place to get these. You can find them on eBay but some values are hard to come by especially the C10k. I’ve made a lot of VFE pedals and Peter used these pots a lot. They seem to be getting harder to find as time moves on. Good luck
