Thanks Tom.
Here are what the 3/8th buttons look like.
A 1/4 inch button that I made is also in the picture.
I am much much happier with these. A much, much more robust
connection with the Teflon slide.

Two 3/8 th buttons are in the mail to you.

Thanks Paul,  I think we are very close on this rev.

I am much more comfortable with the design. The cost and weight went up mainly
due to the 3/8 Teflon but it is still cheap compared to CNC made
traditional ball bearing slide throttle.

BTW when you drill the tap hole for the 10-32 in the button I found
that the .161 drill called out for a 10-32 is too big. the threads become
too weak. Use a .150 tap drill. A tiny detail but you don't want the throttle
cable to come loose from the Teflon slide.
