Best makeshift spinner knob

NIVO:

well if you had the equipment or know someone that had the equipment you could build your own like I did. Saves all kinds of money the more you can do yourself.

NoBonus:

That seems like you must have access to some serious equipment.  Did you make the spinner or just engrave it?

NIVO:

both. I made several at the time, about 2 years ago, in fact JustMichael, another mod on here has one of them. These were made long before Oscar built his(which is also a fine knob as well I might add).

Hmmmn, I think most of the knobs are going to be made for the 1/4" shaft size.  You might be better going with a model 3 spinner and the cheapest $6 knob, or a stereo knob.

Come to think of it, if anyone has the Twisty-Grip spinner plans, they recommended a knob and I contacted the vendor and they sent me a demo knob for free.  I don't remember who it was or know for certain where it is anymore, but it's an option to consider.
