My height knobs are working fine so far, but I can imagine them breaking or stripping out. There’s a meaty spot on the stand where they thread in, probably almost 3/8" thick. I think if one broke/stripped/failed in some manor, I’d drill it out and tap it for a 1/4"-20 thread and use a threaded knob.
