Default Awesome shifters!!
Hey guys - Just wanted to let you all know that Nicker's work is AWESOME!! I met her through my glasswork and think that her work is amazing and would be a great addition to our Vette's! I'm sure she could even match our colors - for example as you know mine is Pewter w/black interior...i know glass comes in these colors

Make sure to check out her pics! Here's a copy of her 'into post'

Hi there, I am new here. I am a Canadian glassworker who handmakes gear shift *****. This forum was recommended to me by a friend. I am looking for advice on sizing and color combos. I don't know if it's OK to post pictures here or not?

Here are a few pics of my gear shifts! Sorry I have no idea how to actually have the pictures turn up IN the post

Please show her a warm vette welcome... she's a great person and artist! Thanks Not sure if the links work in my copied post so I also put the pics in my gallery- check it out!

I'm at the other end of glass work- industrial optics.
