Nope

which is why the pattern regularly rotates now and irritates me

I should do that now that you mention it

mr. jar- dang that is some serious acrobatics you did to remove that knob.

mr.zman- on my TWM knob, i did use a tad of loctite just enough for it from coming loose and let it dry over night. just a little dab of blue is all it takes.
