P2Y7503-ND I orderered this pot off of digikey, but realize now that the shaft doesn't have any threads. Anyone know of a good way of mounting this to my enclosure? I was thinking of making a square hole that fits the flats, and then just putting a piece of tape behind it to hold it in place. Theres gotta be a more elegant way though. Also, CP-009BH-ND that is the connector I got for the power supply. I'm guessing that for this I make a square hole in my case and just shove it in? The material really doesn't seem like it'll give enough to allow that to happen.
Thanks for your help guys!
Ah yes, I also got HS374-ND those as heat sinks. I know some people pull the pin out and tap some threads in it, so that they don't have to solder it down. Now that I got them, though, I see that the hole the pins go in aren't really holes. They're more like a C slot, i.e. one side has no material. Is that what you guys are tapping? I'd think that gap would pose some problems, but maybe I'm wrong.
