I am selling another really nice string pot on Ebay.
This one does not have the bellows protection on the cable, but many
people do not need the protection and it can get in the way.

For those who don't know what a string pot is, here is an explanation.
A string pot is a multi-turn potentiometer with a "string" around it's
shaft. When you pull on the string, it turns the pot and you can
measure linear distances by coorelating the voltage on the
potentiometer with the distance the string has extended. The pot has a
spring return. The string pot I have on Ebay is an instrument grade
device with a stainless steel "string" enclosed in bellows to keep dirt
and debris out of the potentiometer.


If you would like to see it, go here:
