Title: Zero point mini Knobs
Post by: HailToTheBlues on July 04, 2014, 02:26:39 PM
Hi guys,
I need to choose 3 knobs for the zero point mini project, but since the space is tight, i wanted to know how large can they be? Would 15mm be to much for the zero point mini? To save space, instead of using 2 different types of knobs, i could use 6 plastic shaft knobs, so i wouldn't need any knob. What do you think about that?

Best regards

You can't use plastic shaft for all six pots due to the different mounting hole sizes.

For tight builds, I use:

The center to center distance on the three regular pots is 0.7".

0.5" I'm pretty sure.
