Hi and welcome (again)!
When I bought my SDS-1's a bunch of years ago I was no soldering master
but I simply desoldered one pot and brought it with me to a good store
(in that case Elfa here in Sweden) and returned with what I needed (I
think I had two broken pots). Browsing for the right dimensions can be a
b∗tch but there are good suppliers out there of most things.
Good luck!
