jet1 Posted July 8, 2009 Share #1 Posted July 8, 2009 i notice that people are changing the bolts inside their bags to knob bolts for eazy removing. i have found a supplier that sales a snap lock star knob that you can use the same stock bolts. if you are interested the web site is www.hartvilletool.com. you can get a package of 10 for 7.99 + shipping. item #41813 or you can use keyword knobs.

GaThumper Posted July 9, 2009 Share #5 Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) Those are cool! I'll definately save that link for future reference. I bought some a little different from Reid Supply a few weeks ago. The price was right and the service was outstanding. I ordered one day and they arrived the second day after I ordered by first class mail. (First Class Mail was not listed as a quoted shipping rate, but I called and they said it would be the least expensive for a small order) These can be pressed on to a M6 socket head cap screw. I may use a little glue, too, but it's not supposed to be necessary. http://www.reidsupply.com/Default.aspx knobs are made by Shear-Loc Shear-Loc® Thumb Screws Plastic Knobs Make your own thumb screw knobs with any socket head cap screw. Knobs press-fit onto screws with arbor press or between jaw plates. Made from Delrin 500 Acetal Resin. A real money saver! See page for socket head cap screws. Assortments come in break resistant box. Metric dimensions are shown in millimeters. http://www.reidsupply.com/GrpResults.aspx?pid=10022035&aitm=SLK-7&apid=10022035&bi= Haven't tried them out yet, but I got some 26mm knurled ones for .53 each http://www.reidsupply.com/Detail.aspx?itm=SLK-600 http://www.reidsupply.com/images/products/photos/300/SLK-1_ImageC.jpg and some 38mm diameter lobed (or fluted) knobs for .78 each. http://www.reidsupply.com/Detail.aspx?itm=SLK-800 http://www.reidsupply.com/images/products/photos/300/SLK-1_ImageC4.jpg Edited July 9, 2009 by GaThumper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
