I posted a wanted to buy an adjuster knob for a set of used Koni shocks I got here on the forum...NO bites. SO I decided t make a pair on the lathe the other night at school. I posted this on the face book page, but here I added the "firm=>" engraving to the knobs....Just For Fun!

That is how they should be made! Can't understand why they make them from such cheap plastic.

Nice, I like
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) the shock top piece I have a drawer full of them, sorry I missed your add. I am guessing you learned a good bit in making them or at least re-enforced a skill set. |
