Subject: Re: Looking for SDS knob caps

I tried & came up empty-handed with Mouser, Jameco and also Conrad (who
only ship inside the EU, but I've had success with them before where my
USA sources failed). Couldn't find an exact replacement.

I found some that look like they might work from the UK eBay, listed as
"15mm Plastic Mixer Control Knob for 6mm Flatted D-Shaft Pots, Coloured
Caps". The shaft has fewer ribs, but otherwise they look very close. I
ordered some, so even if they aren't exactly the same, at least I'll have
an indicator line to show me where my settings are.

all my best,
- Scott
