[Elecraft] Simple metal knobs

[Jim Miller KG0KP]

I like mine jsut fine but if you like aluminum - they look nice too -

First page on Google search - I'm sure there are a lot available -

 3/4 and 15/16 aluminum.  6mm bores - are elecraft 1/4"?  Close and could be 
drilled out on a drill press if they are too tight.

73, de Jim KG0KP
