I found this one, Keystone 1563.
#4-40 thread with hollow construction.
However only 4 mm tall...

That seems too short to be useful.

Don't you think it should be 10mm tall, or what size are you using?

The units I posted are 7mm from the board to the top. I wouldn't want them any shorter than that. I wish they were 10mm tall.

Tube Depot has the turrets that are slotted at the top (bifurcated), and I sort of like the extra top slot.

But they don't give any dimensional drawings or specifications.

I've used them and found that they are shorter than regular turrets.

I'm about to build something very unusual.
But all the amp snobs like turrets and they hate eyelet boards...
I need to appeal to the turret heads. Or they will think I'm committing blasphemy.
Oh well they won't believe it anyway.

You have 70 lbs of xformers incoming too?

You could always use a 1 x 4 with nails pounded in at the desired locations. I suppose they wouldn't approve of that either.

No matter what transformer you have, it must be upgraded.

I really need some turret appeal.
