[Elecraft] K2 encoder shaft and new knob

[Martin Sole]

I'm in the finishing straight for the build of my nice shiny new K2, 
it's been great fun and I'm looking forward to using it soon.

The new vfo encoder shaft does seem to be a bit too long, either that or 
the hole drilled in the knob is not sufficiently deep enough. I suppose 
the simplest solution is to add extra padding between the knob and 
panel. I'm just a bit concerned it will look a little odd with 5mm of 
wadding in there.

Is there a consensus on a best method to resolve this little dilemma?

Thanks
