Vanagon – another shift knob

It got too cold for the aluminum shift knob I made a while back. I mean it, it’s not the greatest choice of material for a shift knob. So yesterday afternoon at end of work I quickly made one with a bit of wood. Scrap teak that I had at work for some reason. Could have been bigger in diameter but that’s what I had. Wood screwed onto a threaded boss in the aluminum base.
