I am trying to machine up some PCB standoffs for PCBs that don't have board mounted pots.  I really don't much like having them hang in space by their wires. 

I have made ones for boards where the pots don't interfere with the board, but would like to make some for boards that sit over the Pots. 

In my forgetfullness, I forgot to take some measurements this morning before I left for work.  Could one of you measuer how far the back of the pot sticks up inside the enclosure?

Thanks in advance!

A quick look on alpha Taiwan (assuming these are the pots you are designing for?) brings up this page of the datasheet for 16mm pots.  Might get you in the ballpark at least.  There are others on their site for 9mm as well:
