I don't remember who the original genius was who discovered this but it is a perfect fit for fairly cheap.

Does anybody have a clever solution for mounting a 8 mm pot in a 3/8 hole (besides tightening the nut really hard)?

I thought I remember somebody finding the perfect washer or rubber band, but can't seem to find the post in the archive.

I guess I should stop being a cheapskate and order some of these:

Or just use Bourns.
