I don't remember who it was or know for certain where it is anymore, but it's an option to consider. --- End quote --- Found Twisty-Grip plans here - http://www.twistygrip.com/spinners/spinners.htm and the demo knob came from www.apem.com, if you want to try your luck with them. And yes, I'm replying to my own post. Happens when you get old. . . |

generally what is the diameter of a spinner knob? I found one in a junkbox at a handyman junk store for $1.00 it's aluminum I think and works quite well, looks to be off an old silver stereo maybe... But it feels a bit small at 1 3/8" diameter. So what's the normal size? |
