I have a large (studio size) right side focus knob (K2.47175.0) for Arri LFF-1, one of the best Follow Focus ever made, for sale. It is in like-new condition in an Arri cardboard box.
The original retail price for the focus knob was around $1,100 while LFF-1 costed more than 5K.
If you are a lucky one to own a LFF-1, this is your chance to add a right side focus knob which shares the same focus marking disc (K4.32713.0) as FF-3, FF-4 or FF-5. Moreover, you can use this focus knob as left side handle if you need a little more space between FF and mattebox.

Asking price is $500 including CONUS Shipping.
(Note: this focus knob only works with Arri LFF-1)

I will post some photos tomorrow and let me know if you have any questions.

I have an LFF-1, might be interested in this.

Trying to imagine if you're talking about a wheel with an extension that goes under the lens, or what?

Def post pics, please!
 
Here are some pics of the handle.

Nate, you can mount the LFF-1 on the camera right or left. However, to use the LFF-1 on the camera right, you need a right focus knob, which has an extender built in, to clear the space required by most swing-away matte boxes. Hope I answered your question.
 
Bump
 
Perhaps I am missing something, but I don't see a built in extender.
Looks exactly like the same length as my normal handwheel....
 
Clayton, here's the pkg hand wheel:

Nate, thanks for the photo.

By the way, the handle you have is a standard LFF-1 focus knob (K2.07246.0) while mine is a studio size Right focus knob (K2.47175.0)
"The LFF-1 now also has a studio style knob. This new focus knob matches the size of standard ARRI studio follow focus knobs and is compatible with standard studio follow focus marking discs, while retaining the LFF-1's anti-backlash couplings." (Source: Arri.com)

And here are some pics to show the difference between FF-5 focus knob (left) and LFF-1 focus knob (right) coupling.

Wow. $2.25 now!
Let's see how it goes but I am a firm believer of Non-Reserve action.
 
Less than 24 hours until the auction ends and it is only $102.50 now!
