    Limited Run Droid Caller - Precision Machined Kit

    I was informed that they are very close to 1/8" ( 0.125 ) diameter, 3mm would be 0.118 diameter but the knob thread is inch so I would say 1/8 is good, even though the thumbscrew that goes through the head insert is M3, we can split hairs but I think it's close enough, the holes in the previous...
