    Shift knobs

    Hot August Nights Reno NV, August 5th to the 12th not a cnc show, lots of parts are cnc made mine are not. I hope I am not in the wrong category, if so reprimand me but don't kick me out thanks. I have made the knobs for Hi End hot rods, going to take them to the swap meet on the 9th to the 11th, if there is some demand for them I am going to need a cnc lathe that will take 1" stock ,turn 3"x 4" or more with a tail stock, could use one that does not hold close tolerances any more, these are all made by hand on a 14x40 out of bronze nickel silver 6061 aluminum brass stablized wood micarta amber & mother of purle, some are hand engraved.

    These are very nice Knobs. Have you checked with any Used CNC Machine Tool Dealers???

    Very nice! You should check out the Turkey Rod Run on Thanksgiving weekend in Daytona. HUGE show (IIRC the largest hot-rod show & swap meet in the US).
