Great news, I'm buying the lathe from my buddy so I'll have it right at my house. Hoping to pick it up this weekend or after work next week. Then the real production work can start!

I'll be perfecting the MK1 units first as that's what I have here, then the stedebani/GNT/bain/OEM pieces.
Anyone have a stock shifter (doesn't even need to be the whole shifter, just the ball section that the bushing pops on to) that they'd be willing to donate to the cause for cost of shipping? I'd feel a lot more confident selling those if I had one to test fit stuff on and mine is long gone.

Put me in for one Mookeh shifter bushing. I can buy two if it helps make or break this deal.

Great news....Lathe is paid for and my buddy and I are moving it into my basement on Tuesday. I plan on turning one for myself then and driving the car for the next week or two with the new bushing, then I can start producing them.

I decided to stay on the simple side at least for this one with no flange on top, basically a copy of the MK1 piece but with more dimensional accuracy. First two pictures are of the lathe in the truck and in its final resting place in my basement, third picture is with my new bushing installed on the shifter and the MK1 one in my hand.
With the dimensions more accurate the shifts/gates are more well defined and have close to 0 slop. Feels like the way it should have been to begin with. I'm gonna put a couple hundred miles on it in the next week with a bunch of hard shifts thrown in there and see how it wears. If I am happy with it by next weekend I'll start producing them for sale then. Thanks for your patience and continued support!

The properties aren't too much different between the two but where nylon is brittle (and more susceptible to failure from temperature cycling and chemical exposure) that's kinda what the Delrin was made for. Supposedly more dimensionally stable as well so heating and cooling won't have an effect on the size and it has a long wear life. I can get black Delrin too if you guys would prefer but honestly the pricing is the same, you can't see it and I can't for the life of me figure out the difference other than the color.
I'm gonna put it through its paces this week and report back. As long as it holds up well we're in business.

Headed to the basement to make a couple more MK1 bushings and see if I can get my production process/time a bit more fine tuned.

Going to send a couple to a buddy of mine for evaluation and use so I can get an outside perspective and product validation. I will not be having a flange on the finished non-MK1 product, it was a "scrapped" MK1 piece that I reworked into an OEM replacement and didn't have enough room to remove the flange. I may try and do that anyway but don't want to risk jamming the tool post into the lathe chuck in the process.
