Alt Az Slow Motion Cable Knobs

Glad you're here, hope this model works for you!

Alt Az Slow Motion Cable Knobs

Alt Az Slow Motion Cable Knobs.  The rosette type knobs that came with the slow-motion cables I got from Agena Astro always felt thin. And being black in color made them hard to find, mainly because I bought the wrong lengths.  I made these knobs with a different feel pattern to each of their grip texture (Altitude with vertical ridges, Azimuth with horizontal ridges), and printed them in opposite colors to make them easier to find.  Generally when looking through the eyepiece you know immediately whether your turning the right knob, but every little bit helps.

The knobs fit the 12mm shaft of slow-motion cables, with the 3mm countersunk screw.

I recommend you print it in PETG, glow in the dark, if you have it. I used Sunlu PLA+ 2.0.  It's a 1hr 15m print using 39g of filament on my P1S.

Hope they work for you!

Please leave a comment, feedback, suggestions, or even a boost if you're feeling generous.  It does help me improve my models and really makes my day.  Be kind, I’m old and still sort of new at this.  Seriously, thank you for printing my models!

Before you go, if you’d take a look at my other models under my profile I’d appreciate it: GrayGav @JGray_3D
