Finding the correct insert for a G50 Wevo was a PITA. Finely called Wevo. It was 16mm best I can remember.

Slodave’s work is impeccable.
Does work for Singer too, that’s saying something.
Those who visit OT may remember the electric guitar he made from scratch. Spectacular build!

Interesting.

My G50 shifter arm has a threaded top. I believe it was M8. Can not remember exactly.
It does not have a hole to receive an insert you have shown. The knob I fashioned has a threaded hole that I screwed onto the shifter arm.
