I am getting these new custom wood knobs for my Anderson - man are they cool! - and would like to know the shaft size so I order the proper knob.

Should the control pots be bored for 6mm or for 1/4"?

Here is the site I am looking at: http://www.goemerchant7.com/index.cgi?PageToView=catalog&Department=122017&Cartid=375801095003318&Merchant=thgknobs&ExpandedDepts=

TAG has used both 6mm and 1/4" pots and knobs. I just pulled out my dial calipers and checked the five hanging on my wall.
Know anyone with dial calipers? ;)
Or you can check the bore of your current knobs by putting the butt end of a 1/4" drill bit into the hole and seeing if it fits.The 6mm is slightly smaller.
