Does anyone know where to source a 3PDT switch to replace the original in the TS-808HW? A friend asked me to replace his broken switch and the original isn't "normal". The sides of the shaft with the threads is cut. The pedal won't accept a circular "normal" switch because the hole isn't round. I'll try to post a picture as I'm sure my explanation sucks.
Here is the picture. The switch on the right is from the TS808HW. All of my switches are round and won't fit into the body of the pedal because the hole is shaped, not perfectly rounded. Any ideas?
Get out your dremel? Find a file?

If I can't find a replacement I'm fully prepared to file away...or put my drill press to work and drill the enclosure.
Filing ain't that bad. It isn't pretty, but it fits. Thanks Jacob.
hmm, drilling a round hole seems like the easiest solution for me ;)
A tip when cutting (or filing) screws is to do so with the nut already on an fully threaded. When you are done cutting backing out/off the screw will ensure that the threads still align and retain their proper shape
