1. Dillon Says: i want to make a baseball shifter knob for my truck. i was thinking about just drilling a whole into it and start small and get a little bigger till it wedges on the stick good and tight so it stays on. would this work or will it mess up the inside of the ball?????
2. Scotter Says: You will need to measure the mounting screw on your shifter. You will also need to get a screw mount for the inside of the ball as well. Once you have the proper hole insert the anchor with some really strong epoxy. If you don't you will have a shifters knob that comes off at an inconvenient, possibly dangerous time. The inside if a baseball is all string, so yeah the ball will be ruined for play. Also the humidity that builds in the car will waterlog the ball. Just drilling a hole will be a mess. If you are going to do this get everything ready and install the ball on a warm dry night when you don't need to be anywhere the next morning so the epoxy can dry. If you going to do it, do it right.
