Shift knob

Tonight I turned a shifter knob for my truck. I turned it from a piece of persimmon branch that I picked up from the farm I grew up on. I chose persimmon because of is nice grain pattern and the light color. I am hoping that with a light oil finish the wood will develop a nice patina. It was a fairly simple project, so there might be more shifter knobs to come. I hope to have pictures soon.
