Default Hand made shift knob

I was messin' around on the lathe today at work. Found some scrap aluminum barstock and spin this out. It's not perfect/fancy but I also have no formal training on the lathe (I'm a hydraulics mechanic). I countersunk the threads so it sits lower than stock knob (sits just on top of the boot. )





Thanks for looking

Chris

Wow thanks man. I'll tell you one thing if i did, they would all be 'one off' because there is no way i could make that the same again. Had no idea what i was doing really. Dont even know if i had the right 'bit' in the tool lol.
