[sdiy] Pots from Futurlec

[Graham Atkins]

Hi Simon,

I would guess they would fit. Someone mentioned recently about Futurlec
because the shaft diameter is quoted as 5.5mm which in my experience is
very unlikely. We don't know where on the shaft this measurement comes
from but most pots are designed for 6mm OR 1/4" (6.35mm) shafts wether
round, round with a flat for single screw knobs or splined for splined  
knobs.
(Some miniature or dual concentric pots have other sizes)
