Do you mean the DOT-style knob? If so, those will also be made available as a separate item shortly. If there's interest, I can look into a run of that style in anodized aluminum to add to the line-up as well.

Yeah... I like the one that is on this one here the best.

No laser or mill for the SI turret, just a good old trusty file or two ;)
I orginally made a brass insert for the spinner but I changed it for a CF insert and added the turret.
Yup, I imagine yours would be cheaper. I did offer the other one on that image for $15 but no one was interested :-[

Ah ha! you cheated ;) Still a great effect.
I also just wanted to mention for those who might be interested, that these will work with any spinner which has a precision 1/4" shaft, not just the TT2. But you'll want to use some calipers to measure it as these are machined to tight tolerances for *near-zero* run out (no wobble).

What are the diameters of these? And of the Tron top?

The new domed top version is 1 9/16" diameter which, not so coincidentally, is the same diameter as the original Arkanoid knobs. ;)
The new skirted style knob is 1 1/2" in diameter at the grip and 1 9/16" at the base.
The DOT style knob is 1 1/2" in diameter, which is a little smaller than the original.
