Finally!!!
Push rubber washer through rubber leg tip. Push rubber leg tip over focusing knob. Everything fits in snugly - rubber through rubber on rubber.
No metal parts involved means no potential/accidental damage to original focusing knob rubber surface.
Rubber Leg Tip
inner diameter = 17 mm (although the words "19mm" is engraved inside)
outer diameter = 22 mm
Cost = $0.30
Rubber Washer
inner diameter = 20 mm
outer diameter = 44 mm
Cost = $0.80
Best $1.10 I have ever spent in my life. 525 power here I come!!!

That plus our shaky hands...wobbles are common!
Gary! I noticed in the first pic your actual focus knob has a rusty looking small hole at the side! Seems like a grub screw locking the focus knob to the focus shaft! If so, it can be removed. I still have the Knob....you want it?? Lemme know ya...we can meet Friday and install!
