[sdiy] POTential Stacking

[Dr Steve Grainger]

Cynthia asked:-

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I seem to remember a few years ago there was company making pot
subasssemblies that could be stacked, or ganged together.

This would be so that you could control say a 10K linear pot and a
1 Meg log pot at the same time using the same shaft.

Does anyone know more about these?

Thanks!

Some pots, both single and dual, have the shaft running through the casing to
a slotted section which protrudes at the back. I've seen a design where the 
shaft of a second pot, filed down to fit this slot, has then been rotated
in tandem with the first.

This will give you an infinite number of  'gangs' only limited by the depth
of the case they have to fit in!
