Threaded. Just mild steel. Hand done on the lathe. Lathe I was using only fed one axis at a time so was not as smooth on the tapers as I would of liked but it worked. Then drilled and tapped and opened the clearance for the rev lockout also all on the lathe. Plan is to remove my wheels this spring and strip them and powder coat them the same lazer rootbeer brown that the one shift knob is.

I made this a while back for a long road trip but now I use it everyday. Made from a dense foam wedge pillow that I carved to fit, a thin piece of wood (1/8" thick), some closed cell foam for padding and pleather from Michaels.

I made these. .7 inch laser engraved 86 logos with an adhesive back. I put one on my Photon Freedom Micro. I also have one on my 12v outlet.

These are stickers I made. My wife Amber is the artist. She has been painting for years. They are printed on vinyl and laminated. She just sold the original of the sticker in the bottom right corner, it is approx 18 x 24 inch.


LED backlit poster frame. It displays the stickers nicely. Our stickers are high quality, very water resistant, and scratch resistant. the back of cell phones and tablets are where many people put theirs. Plus the vinyl peels right off.

Rear seat delete/storage compartments. These are far from perfect but I think they will work out acceptably. @Leonardo

I like the idea. I had rear storage compartments in my FC instead of back seats, another car where the back seat are a cruel joke. I would welcome this mod.
