So looking for a new gear knob and noticed not much out there and decided to make one myself. I have the luxury of working in a machine shop with lathes and cnc lathes. So had a few hrs spare today and knocked up one. Just took old gear knob off and took a few measurements.
The gear knob didn’t come out aswell as wanted as cnc is running a job. So all done on manual lathe.![IMG_2706.jpeg IMG_2706.jpeg](https://www.t6forum.com/data/attachments/242/242782-f9bbc62840fa9052ab19817af683a951.jpg)
Knob and insert

Insert screwed inside knob
I would probably make a new complete set now I know the fit and so on.![IMG_2712.jpeg IMG_2712.jpeg](https://www.t6forum.com/data/attachments/242/242790-6e69712856a761f4c9c6cd9f14ff281d.jpg)
Like I said knob isn’t great and probably make complete new assembly when have access to cnc.
