Toggle caps for 9p each.....

Ok, maybe they are designed for kite rods, but, I have one of the kite rod ends and they do fit toggle switches, just paint and glue in! Great for a temp solution at the least!

Why pay ten times the price?

Just paint white and wolaaar!

I found the same thing only in white at a hardware store, they are end caps for wire closet organizers. I think I got 50 in a bag for less than $5.00.

Hey pretty cool idea.

I was thinking you could also use this stuff called Plastidip (http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip). It's for adding a rubberized coating to tools. You can get them in various colors to suit your needs and if you have been building your own yoke but want a plastic finish on the outside I should think it would work great for that too. I'm thinking of using it on a few things myself (knobs / Lever handles / etc..)

Cheers
