Hello,
So I'm essentially looking for a shaft potentiometer but that is surface mount. I don't really want to mount a large TH pot by just soldering the tabs to the board.
Ideally, I would like the low profile of an SMD trimmer but with a shaft. Do they exist? Looking on the suppliers website, doesn't really seem to.
This is what I would ideally want:

I found the trimmer knobs but I want to know if they are compatible so that once stuck to the trimmer, they would make essentially a shaft. I'm not looking for a trimmer tool. The example above probably would not work but you get the idea what I want to achieve.
Here's a list of TME's
trimmer knobs.
