Source of small pot knobs - UK ?

The small ones found on audio mixers , especially for the small slplined shaft ones of about 4.6mm. A nice random selection would be nice , to match up for missing ones. Just a brand name or generic term for them would help googling.

OT: Anyone tried the son of Google - Cuil.com.? Beautiful black text on black background for the searchbox is what I get on Firefox.

Canford Audio - I'd guess. At a price.

Just looked - it is a white searchbox using IE6 or Firefox 2.0.0.16. Agreed the rest of the page (and text) is funeral black.

Searchbox is OK on Netscape 7.2, but results pages have no vert. scrollbar so one can't view anything but the top of the page; also results extend past the right margin and there is no horiz. scrollbar so that area is unviewable as well.

Index can't be nearly as large as Google's: I got zero hits on keyword searches designed to produce hits for my site, which are properly returned by a Google search.

FWIW, they crawled me but didn't get any content (/robots.txt permits indexing of most of the site content):

Looks as though I'll have to continue packing out small 1/4 inch knobs with

2 layers of electrician's 0.6mm thick earth wire sleeving. Cut axially and both coincident for D section ones and overlapped for round ones. Bot very professional but holds together ok on the splines without slipping

Firefox 2 I had, options/load images, disbled which somehow makes the searchbox black. Sometimes only top of page is visible, sometimes all

Most are proprietary I'm afraid. You could look at what Sifam have to offer.

offer.

I get the impression proprietary. Yes, these look the sort of ones

No specific mention of the few random ones I clicked on , for 4.6mm spline shafts but certainly some for 4mm , presumably round or D, so promising

Of the thousands of salvaged knobs I've collected over the years not a single one for 4.6mm . Unfortunately all mixers that come my way for repair, get returned, and no scrappers.
