[sdiy] UK source for cheap splined pots

[Seb Francis]

Many thanks to everyone for the replies about pot sources.

It's a bit annoying that the ones ESR sell are 5mm longer longer than 
the ones from Rapid (in other ways they look identical). Not a problem 
to cut them down for small quantities I guess.

Bowood don't give many details online, so I'll have to phone them to 
find out the length & type.
