[sdiy] Why I was asking about UNEF etc.

You mean
(1) put nut on the pot's tread, down to the shaft
(2) screw pot into the threaded front panel, but not
    tighten it overly
(3) screw the nut *up* against the front panel,
    now applying the final force?

Sounds like a good idea, reminds me of a counter nut.
Now *does* this work like a counter nut?
Probably not, because when I wrench it towards the
panel, it looses contact with the pot's body.
But now the clamping is between nut and panel,
both metal. Advantage or disadvantage?
