    Hi. I ordered such pots, I would like to mount them through a 2: 1 mode layout. I need a project of such modes for 6mm shafts. Can anybody help? I don't know much about 3D printing, but having a project, I might be able to commission a friend to do it.

    Not everything needs to be 3D-printed. I am using Module-1 steel gears for connecting a motor with a pot, and that works reliably for years now. Such gears have a 6mm hole for the axis, and they are attached to the axis with tiny screws.
