First thingy so here goes ...
Couldn't find a support on here for the pot from a LM-2596 DC-DC for a benchtester and didn't want to wait on an ebay order so I gave it a shot.
Use a heated pin to make a starter hole as close to end of shaft as possible. Then use a lead from a 3mm LED in hole, cut with small amount extra and squeeze in with pliers.
Solder wires onto pot, place in holder (tight fit) and align shaft with adjuster.
