making the pots of an russian big muff more sluggish???

[914wolf]

Im new here and like to built an aby-splitter on my own soon.
But for now I have a question concerning the bm.
Hope this wasnt asked before and sluggish is the right word:
The pots/controls of the device are far too easy to turn
which could lead to surprising effects when gain is cranked
up or turned down, unintended.
Does anyone has an idea how to improve that. Best without modding electronics.

tips are greatly appreciated, thanks inadvance,
wolf

  Felt pads [like washers] used a brake discs between the box top and under the knobs.
  I used to have major difficulty keeping my Strat Type guitar on or at any particular volume setting, partly because I do the 'windshield washer blade' rythm sweeps, but that knob is right in the way..I could never get used to it until I put enough felt washer under the knob to make it 'stiffer' to turn.
