upgraded the stupid coin tray behind the shifter

Machined out of delrin to hold change and my surefire defender, 3m double sided tape keeps her solid and everything is accessible as needed. I love being a machinist.

 

I see in your profile you have experience with the Turboencabulator

 

I love working with good machinists. Looks good!

 

Mine does, seems more like a card holder.

Really nice, I would have loved to learn that trade.

 

Hey feel free to make me one of those and come on over and install it! Lol that's a very cool idea! Nice job!

 

Nice work!

Being a machinist you should look into making up some semi flush method wheel cap replacements.... market demand is high!

 

20mm shell out of an A10 warthog makes a good shifter

 

I use that spot to hold crumbs and dirt.

 

I zinged your idea. Got one printing just now on a 3D printer. Will post pics in about 5 hrs...
thinking about $14.99 + shipping, pay pal accepted!!

 

Just kidding on selling them!!

 

or 30mm?

 

What spot are you referring to? Coin holder or the really inconvenient cup holder?

 

Got a sPOD controller there. But I have the dimensions for that spot...I think.

 

Great use of that little tray, OP.

I have to defend the forward cup holder under the dash... perfect for a 12oz can in a yeti can cooler. The blinged-out chrome cup holders don’t quite accept a yeti rambler.

 

How hot does that shell get in the summer?

 

My door handle where you pull in door is my change holder, anyone wanna take a guess on how much it holds when filled to top????

 

it gets pretty hot in the summer but not so hot you can't shift.... if it were a stick shift that may be a different problem. I machined the insert for shell casing and threaded it M8 so it would screw down like the factory one.
The little cup holder way up front has a 3D printed insert in it that holds pens, chapstick, toothpicks , and a small flashlight

 

Howdy from DFW and nice truck AND addition of coin holder

 

I like it.

 

Great use of the space I keep my toothpicks in. OP should you decide to make these and sell them I am in for one.

 

What do you need a change holder in the truck for? Never needed coins for anything while driving.

Probably about as hot as this sucker which gets too hot to touch.

 

Mine doesn't get hot.

 

In south Louisiana we typically have public pay boat launches that have a machine that gives you a parking permit for a couple of bucks to keep landings up. Nominal fee, but most of the machines never take dollar bills so quarters in your truck come in handy. The ticket is quite a bit more expensive for not having the pass on your dash.

Also, if you need to stop at a carwash on the way home to clean out the boat, then quarters are in hand.

 

The A-10 Thunderbolt (Warthog) is built around the General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger which is 30mm.
