Was not a fan of the knob cover's intended loose fit over the knob, this part aims to mount the cover to the range.

A quick adapter to mount a stove knob cover to the stove itself instead of relying on the connection between the knob and shaft. The part is highly specific to the stove and cover used, but the design can be tweaked as needed. Some pointers:
- max_adapter_thickness: This parameter will need to be tuned to take into account how much the knob moves inwards and if the knob hits the inside of the cover. Too thick and the stove knob won't be able to push inwards, too thin and the knob cover will not be able to close since the knob will hit the inside of the cover
- cover_thickness: This parameter dictates the height of the inner circle which mates with the knob cover. If this value is larger than the actual cover thickness the guard will be able to freely rotate since the screw head will not contact the guard. If this value is thinner than the actual thickness, the screw head will make contact with the guard and prevent it from spinning if desired.

- mounting screw cutout sketch: This portion was added after discovering a couple of the knobs had extra screws to connect the range face plate to the range itself.
The guard installed as instructed. The guard is free to rotate and move about. The knob can be pulled off if the guard is pulled:
