All knobs will have the option of being polished, anodized, or having a polished anodized finish. The final choices will be based on interest.

Price: $20ea + Shipping & PP fees ($3 base, $1 for each additional for USA. (International Prices upon request))
Savings: $17-$35

In fact, I will extend this deal to any other hosts out there that are at the 1" range contingent on 10 piece minimum. For anything over 1" up to 1.5", I can do $23ea, and 1.5"-2" $26ea.
I will need at least 20 to be spoken for to be able to get to this price.

(Colors may look a bit different in person, it is quite difficult to get a picture that actually matches the color well)

Discounted Knobs:

After running the knobs through some our processes, it looks like the walls were too thin around the threads. Because of this, we have a bunch of knobs that are broken through in some areas like so:

They are just as functional, just have cosmetic issues as now the threads from the lens will be showing in those areas. Most knobs only have 1 or 2 of the 6 slots with a spot that is broken through.
Because of this, I am offering these knobs for $15ea. I currently have 8 of these in black. If you want another color for these, I will require 5 of them to be done, but I will do $65 for 5. Plain polished ones are not subject to a minimum. If someone wants to buy more of these, I may be willing to go as low as $10ea for all of the ones I have (~30)

Smooth flow adapter.

Would $20 be the cost of any finish or would special finishes be more?

It will be $20 for any finish as long as there are enough people interested.

Make a few, sell em for reviewers and let them get popular. Give it a break and then start taking orders.
I feel you would have good chances that way. Especially if those bad-boys were anodized black, like matte black.
I dont have a C6 or a minisabre. Otherwise, for 20 bucks, id be all in. No question about it.
Great job! :beer:

Thanks! I chose the C6 though seeing as it is the most common host around. Ya, I may have to only do a few at first to a few people, just figured I'd try this out though. The only way I can justify such a low price though is in large quantities.

Can you provide the diameter. Think it would fit a SH-032?

I think you will get there, just a matter of time :). The c6 is indeed the most common of the hosts. What would the prices be for individual sales as of right now? That might be good to know so people can see how much they would truly be saving :)

The head of the C6 is 1.020" I will likely make the focus knobs 1" as my next size up in stock is 1.25". Unless of course the .020" makes a large difference to people in which case I will make them 1.020". The SH-032 I think was .930" OD and the Inside of the bezel was also about .070" less, so I would say no. However, if there is enough interest in knobs for the Sh-032, those can be made as well as the same price. This would still be subject to the 20 knobs minimum. In fact, I will extend this deal to any other hosts out there that are at the 1" range contingent on 20 piece minimum. For anything over 1" up to 1.5", I can do $23ea, and 1.5"-2" $26ea.

Good point. For just the knob prices would be about $30. Adding the polished finished another $5, and then for anodizing it'd be $2 minimum assuming a batch of 10 were done at one shot. Otherwise it could cost up to $20. So price is $37-$55 making the savings $17-$35.

I wouldnt want the knob to fit inside the bezel on the SH-032, or turning it all the way in would unscrew the heatsink/pill...

The heatsinks are made to sit up against the back of that inside lip of the bezel. So if the focus knob were the diameter of the head of the host, you would have to use a longer lens because there is a .110" gap between the heatsink and the front of the bezel where the lens would never be able to thread into anything. If you do an undercut in the back of the focus knob so it now sits inside the bezel, the lens is better supported and has more focus knob to thread into.
