Please add me to the wait list! I am super keen to have one of these on my GT lookalike, which may hopefully come out to play next spring....I will have a standard shifter. I can PM you, but suspect I should wait until run 2 is confirmed...
Thx SR |

For everyone who PMed me, I'll be sending out the payment information tomorrow.
If I can get three more people on the wait list, I'll buy materials for a second run this week. Have to say, its been a while since I have made these, and I'm looking forward to it. Zach |

I've gotten payments from about 1/2 of the first run. THANK YOU!
I will be starting turning this weekend, with intentions to ship the first knobs next week. I still need one more knob to commit the second run. Zach |

The block glued up really well. It gets cut into blanks tomorrow. The delrin rod arrived earlier this week that I use for the crush rings. I should be turning tomorrow if all goes as planned. Zach |

You probably already intend to (as above) but posting pics of the process is fascinating.

Pictures are brilliant, but I guess being an engineer I would like to know full specs as well so that when the guy who has just had full details of my engine build also asks about that wonderful gear knob....
How about wood species, laminate thickness, glue type, blank size, turning time, polish time, polish, lacquer and anything else that you can think of that does not reveal anything proprietary! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
