Hi The metal shaft pot part number for the K1 is 652-3540S-1-104 from Mouser Electronics. The last time I ordered some they were about $13 plus shipping. When mounting do not use the plastic washer that came with the K1 pot. Use a nut then the star washer then the panel followed by the flat washer and nut. adjust the back nut so only one or two threads are showing on the top nut. This moves the pot shaft and VFO knob back closer to the panel. I think this looks better with the knob close to the panel.
