Help....Okuma Knob on Accurate Valiant 2 spd ???

[osider]

My dilemma :  I am trying to mount a (non-SEA)Mak 10 knob onto my 600 Valiant 2 spd handle arm. (Note: I really like the size of this smaller t-knob)

The cutout/notch out on the Okuma knob is different than the cut-out/notch out on the handle arm of the Valiant.

Am i wasting my time here with trying to make this knob work ?
OR   
Can I just drill out the Accurate handle arm so the Okuma knob pin can sit inside of newly drilled hole ? Will it still spin freely if i do this ?

Thanks, Gerry from San Diego, CA

i can think of a couple of ways that this would work, but all solutions would require an entire afternoon with a small file, and maybe a bench grinder and drill press.  ideally, you'd have to file out a square hole in the accurate arm to match the square peg of the okuma grip.

Thanks Alan.....

Is this something I can hire your services for ?

If so, l am interested.

i can mount of for you easily.  i also have my own grip that would just bolt on. either way is fine.  i'll send you a pm with my mailing info.
