<p>I decided to print out a new higher quality knob for my FT-817 on my replicator. I soon discovered that the model used to print the knob on my cupcake didn't fit right when printed on my new bot with better tolerances. I decided to make my new knob parametric so I could easily make any adjustments in the future. The knew knob is awesome on my radio.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Hobby Summary</h3> <p>I decided to print out a new higher quality knob for my FT-817 on my replicator.

The knew knob is awesome on my radio.</p> <h3> Instructions</h3> <p>1) Print the knob.<br/> 2) Remove the rubber grip ring from your stock FT-817 knob.<br/> 3) Remove the set screw fully from the stock knob. You will need a 1.5mm allan key for this.<br/> 4) Slide the stock knob straight off and place the new crank knob on.<br/> 5) Tighten in the set screw on the side but don't crank it down too tight.<br/> 6) Put the rubber grip ring on the new knob.</p> <p>Now you are ready to hook your radio back up and spin the dial for those QSOs.</p>
