You guys are not gonna believe this. I lost my knob! Ziptie is on there now. Simple.

I always thought you had a screw loose.....

I always thought you had a screw loose.....

Thought I did when I saw it gone. Remembered this thread right away and I try to be a man of my word. Zip tie is theft proof anyway. Doubt the idiots that steal carry a pocket knife or even own tools! Must be that Karma thing. Never should have talked about the knob. Now I bet all of us that did will lose them!

The washer welded into the slot of a flat head M6 x 1 screw is the ticket. Added a thin plastic washer and it's perfect.

I got a big 1/4” stainless fender washer bent the opposite sides up forming “ears”, and welded it under the factory bolt head. Easy to remove with gloves on. I removed the little latch tab too, well broke it off..... trying to bend it for more expandable tunnel bag clearance. The bent ears on the washer make a nice flat area to prevent rub through on the Bag. Not as pretty as a 15$ machined finger screw, but it works well and is compact.

My sincere apologies on this follow on post. I ordered these 2 based on the original posting following the USA listing for the recommended knobs. I think it's deleted as if not Admin please delete my post and the original.
