    Not really sure how to go about the vendor thing but you could always throw them up on ebay and post a link I would guess. As for shapes start with the program you have and get some feedback and go from there. Could always start a thread on what opinions are for what the masses want. If you are doing 3rd gen's I would think something dick shaped would be a huge hit with that crowd! JK, I am sorry I could not help myself. I kid, I kid. But try to come up with something out of the box and see what happens from there.

    LOL, throbbing vein engravings are no additional charge.

    Good idea with ebay, might have to do that. I thought of just selling the internals at full price on here, since they are physically complete, then complete the knob part after the sale. However, I do no think attempts at lawyering the rules would end well for me.

    I suppose a thread should be started for it already, since my previous requests for guidance got buried somewhere in the MT thread (several times).

    Yeah man start a threat, create an ebay store and post the links. Make sure you take care of the members on the site and the word will get out. I buy stuff all the time from people on here that are not vendors and as long as they reply to my PM's and stuff I rep the hell out of them. Make sure people know you are doing it as a side gig and most members on here are pretty understanding. Give people a few options and then do custom work upon request at an extended delivery time. It will take off.

    I couldn't warm up to the skinny 8 mm stick so I sleeved it ouit to 13 mm--that's an M12 x 1,75 thread at th top so that my Mustang shift knobs (made and sold them some years back) would fit:

    I know. I was making a joke because of the dude that did that and flipped out and blamed the vendor.

    Yea, 100+ every day this week in sunny FL too.

    I like the look but I'd need to glove up before shifting.
