feeler.....custom shift knobs

[JRKOUPE]

any 1 have any interest in a no bling hard delrin shift knob?....



I may be able to help design one that would mimic like a sport sedan touring race item.......barrel shaped w/ simple contours....simple, hard ,not cold or hot, light, and hardcore looks..........price, etc to be decided. Any ideas welcomed.

i want a heavy shift knob. Delrin is an interesting idea though. Do you have a ball park for the price?

[JRKOUPE]

knobs

..I understand your desire for heavy...... but w/ a proper shifting car its really not needed.....


no idea on price yet.....I told the fabricator it needs to be inline w/ other knobs or close to them.......

i kinda like the idea of a barrel shape, what color will it be? and price of course

[Rob]

fuck yeah

[JRKOUPE]

fuck yeah

geez, thats like a v8 stock car, short tracker!!!!!!!!.....w/ a hurst lever.



Actually I am not against a ball......let me talk to fab guy some more and get some pricing........

most likely plain, no bling..................... BLACK.....Price to be determined after shape and total needed.

I'm liking it. Maybe have it decent diameter up top and have it tapper down, but you're the designer. kool

[JRKOUPE]

here is the item that first peaked my interest.......




Im thinking of doing a similiar one w/o the ring/shelf on bottom taper....




this will be a bit tall for that "closer to the steering wheel" race car feel....


we dont need no short stubby levers ..........

What materials can you use? I would love a titanium ball like the one in the pic.

I am guessing that it feels awesome... I would definently be intrested if it is shaped right
