Potentiometer Knob Caps

Various designs for 3D printed potentiometer knob caps.

These caps are all designed to fit on the 6mm rotary pots used on [OVUM](https://crowselectromusic.com/products/ovum).

Fusion360 project file is included in case you want to tweak the size, depth, or clearances.

My design goals were:

1. Pleasing look and feel
2. Clearly readable orientation
3. Minimal materials usage
4. Fast printing

All of these designs print with the top of the knob on the build plate. If the model is named "VASE" then it's designed for vase-mode printing.

Of the two in the photos, the smoother one is printed at 0.1mm layer height, and the fuzzy one is printed with 0.1 fuzzy skin thickness and 0.1 fuzzy skin point distance.

This didn't really succeed well at being clear to read the orientation, but I like the look and feel. It's not a super fast
