Any reason why....
« on: October 28, 2003, 12:12:59 am »
I couldn't use one of the Mame engraved oscar spinner knob as my volume dial?

I don't have room on my CP for a spinner but they seem about the right dimensions (Diameter: 1.5" Height: 0.7" Weight: 2.0 oz) compared to what I currently have.

They don't have a pointer but it's probably not too important considering most people will know what it does anyway-esp. if I get the silver one.

What do you think?

I will measure that but it should be okay I think- the know looks to have screws in the side for adjusting. Is this correct?

If the shaft is too small for the hole, you can buy pills that make it bigger.   :o

(sorry couldn't resist)   ::)

Yeah, I think you adjust the pins in those holes using some size of Allen wrench, and they clamp down on shaft inside the hole.  You can get hollow and solid metal shafts from the hardware store to attach that to your volume knob shaft inside the cab.
