Does anyone have the specs for the 917 shift knobs? I am talking about the ones that were laminated wood.
I am looking for: What wood was used in the lamination What are the dimensions How was it attached. I know someone already makes these, and I could just buy one. However, I am interested in learning how to use a wood lathe and my grandfather is going to give me his and all his tooling for it. Instead of just turning eggs until I get the idea of what I am doing, I figured this would be a more useful project to start with. Zach |

It bugs me when people tell you to take the easy way out, kind of misses the whole damn point. |

Next weekend. I may be able to sell a few of these at Hershey to recover some of the money spent on the house this and next week. Sides, while I'm at the inlaws, not a lot of car work I can be doing. Zach |
