Check out my new console, I made it myself Options

[turnaround89]

I decided to do some interior work on my car and wanted a new center console, the one before was basically a big box on the floor, and i didn't like the look. When i bought the car i got like half of a 2.0 console and used that as a template for one side and built the rest the way i wanted it to look. It is not complete yet but will be. I still need to put the led lights on either side and inside the little compartment, to give a little more light in the interior. I need to cover it in vinyl and get the thrid switch for the last hole. The switches will be used to turn the fuel pump on and turn the leds on as well, the third(i guess second since the middle switch will do this) will be used as a kill switch, i haven't decided on that yet either. What do you think?

Is there a simple way to wire the two gauges so they work, i don't have any of the wiring for them?

You buy a straight cut router bit with a bearing the same diameter as the bit. The bearing can be on the top or bottom. I prefer the top so I can watch it ride on the "master copy." You place the master on top of another board that is rough cut slightly larger. Stick the two together with a couple brads, screws, double stick tape, etc. You don't need much. You then set the router height so the bearing rides on the upper master and the bit cuts the bottom board. You push the two through your router and you have a perfect copy in about a minute. Buy a quality bit. It's worth the money. It will cut alot cleaner.

You'll learn fast that if you push too slow you'll burn the wood. Push too fast and you burn up a router.

Here's the bit you need if you have a 1/4' shank. You might need a 1/2' shank.
