Title: Turbo Twist 2 spinner
Post by: johnd23 on June 20, 2010, 09:09:51 am
I ordered the TT2 spinner from GGG with the big blue knob. I wanted to add the hole to my control panel this weekend. I know it uses a 1 1/8 hole but i am looking for the diameter of the knob itself so I can place it in the best spot. Anyone happen to own one and can help me out?

1.75"

See my build in my .sig if you need a sense of scale.

I also got the big Blu knob originally, but in the end I didn't really like the look and plasticy feel. I ended up getting the  TokenTop™ Premium Spinner Knob which although is a bit more pricey, looks and feels a lot better.

Alternatively you will get a slight discount ordering a aluminim knob when you order the TT2 spinner which you cannot get afterward.

I guess I'm just saying be sure the big blue is something you want ... it may be a better initial investment to get a premium knob right off the bat.

See my tutorial link for the exact same configuration...the dimensions match a regular standard Happ pushbutton 1 1/8" hole.
