Diameter or Circumference?
6" diameter is HUGE!!!
I just got out a tape measure and figured that you are talking diameter.
If you are considering a 6" gearknob then you have bigger hands than me  Will it hit the CD player?
I'd gor for the 3"

lol! I was just having fun - I saw some 3.5" ballbearings on eBay and thought 'that would be a huge gearknob!'
Then I remembered I had all these stainless steel 'floatie ball' things that are supposed to go in gardens (fountains).
I ended up using the small one for the moment but I now that I have made the ferrari style gate for the shifter I've sourced a shifter ball with the shift pattern on top (as per capps - not ferrari's!). |

| Naah, just get a box of real ones and spray them with some chrome paint - I'm sure they'd last as long as you wanted them too! and I can't think of a better use for them |

Not hard - it's virtually all the time here between the McDoughnuts and the Kentucky Fried Cretins.

About a 50% chance of happening here - kids who work there are up to about 17 years old and they don't give a **** if they mess up someone's order! KFC recently I said I wanted a large meal and he handed me the bag and a can of pepsi... I said 'I ordered a LARGE meal so I need a LARGE drink...' And then he hands me that instead and my chips which weren't even in the bag to begin with  Would've been ripped off then! |
