[sdiy] Mounting methods for air variable tuning caps ??

[Dan Snazelle]

I am working on a sdiyproject that uses an old fashioned variable capacitor (the kind with fins) to control an osc

It does have a few holes to screw it into the bottom of a box 

BUT the shaft itself is not any sort of shaft I've worked with before AND the shaft is extremely short 

These are the three section type 

I figured maybe some of the fellow Ham sdiyers might be able to shed some light on mounting and creating longer shafts for these 

Many thanks for any advice
