The Ultimate Jig Knob

thingiverse

THE ULTIMATE JIG KNOB Working in the garage, I often set up jigs using 80/20 T-slotted channels, fabricated aluminum brackets and 3D printed parts. In the past, I always needed more knobs. I used pronged T-nuts for a while but really wanted a universal knob that I could use for all my projects. I designed and refined these Knobs to maximize their flexibility. Early designs were too smooth, so I added knurling. Knobs sometimes needed to be tighter than I could hand torque, or became stuck, thus the hex shaft. Starting the knobs was a pain, so I designed a simple tool to socket in the back of the Knob. I've come to love this design, and I hope these knobs find their way into your shop!
