How can it be on the wrong side?  It's in the middle.  :lol:

Looks good, I'm planning to make one like J45on's for my MX-5.

Cheers

Ooh!  this looks so nice.

I have a large Asian lathe with small levers that are probably quite adequate for smaller hands.   You have inspired me to make some larger levers.  Thanks.

Very nice job. Not long ago I made an aluminum steering wheel knob for my tractor. It works like a champ but the aluminum does coat my hand after a few minutes so I've taken to wearing gloves. Did you put some sort of coating on the knob? May be beneficial if you didn't.

Looks nice, but try remaking it out of steel.  You'll be amazed at how it seems to shift more smoothly.  The weight gives it better feel.
