Does anyone know where I can get a different kind of locking knob for the pivot fence?

The one that come with the table is an "L" shaped handle... and the "L" bangs into the subfence knobs (yes I know the "L" can be adjusted). I'd like to replace it with a round knob, but haven't found one locally with a metric thread (I think the CMT knob is M6).

So, before I go ahead and make something myself, I thought I'd ask around.

Thanks in advance

Hi AlanZ

Easy fix on that one,, pickup a 6mm screw that's full thread at the same time pickup a female plastic knob that's 1/4-20 thread the norm take them back to the shop and cut the head off the screw you got and put the knob in the wooden vise and run a 6mm tap down the hole almost all the way .

Once you have that done put on some super glue ( thick type ) on the threads and turn it into the knob, let ti set for just a bit and you now have a metric male knob that will do the trick..

You can get both items from ACE hardware...
You order one on line but the cost would kill the good deal when you can make your own for 2.oo or less..

But if you just want to buy one ,here's a link
Just type in knobs
