As a lot of pedal builders on here are aware but Tayda's smooth shaft pots come in either 6mm or 6.35mm.
My problem is when it comes to knobs, When I put a knob on the 6mm I find that they dont look straight from the side so that when you turn it makes the knob look wonky. So because of the thinner shaft its hard to get the knob level, it sort of moves too much as you tighten, am I doing something wrong?
Cut a piece of heatshrink to fit around the shaft of the 6mm pots
You're looking too close. Put it on the floor and see how it looks then.

ok I will try that
I use copper tape to swell the shaft size.

And stand back.....
Knobs.
Shafts.
I wonder how many people without any interests in pedal building ended up on this page due to some seedy google search... :o

Well it's all about the 'click bait' these days

Nanny Ogg is great. I need to reread that series.
