Thing #4113 is still fiddly to undo, so I decided to make it easier to use. This bolt knob is larger and has improved geometry to grip on with the fingers. This design also makes it easier to use as the screw head is fixed on the other side of the knob comparing to the thing #4113, minimizing the risk of breaking off while being tightened. Because screw comes through the whole length of the thing there is no need to use epoxy to secure the screw. One drop of super glue is enough. And when you do it up it will only become better. Unfortunately, It takes longer screws. I used 1 inch long M3 screws with hex socket head 5mm in diameter. But these are standard and easy to get. Hope I just made world a little bit better :-)
