I could, it just involves weighting it with a denser material.

For example, the latest 8 & 9 ounce ***** were weighted with brass, which is ~.308lb/in³. I could do tungsten which is .697lb/in³, or ~2.25x denser.

Enough with the math, it's definitely possible =) My densities are quoted from this table: http://www.thelenchannel.com/1density.php

Cheers!

Gordon was kind enough to give me one of his shift **** made by Landon, after sitting in his car and drooling over it..It fits great, and the weighted **** provides better shifting, needless to say, it is retro and has a kickass Mazda emblem on it...
Thank you Gordon once again

Awesome work man!
I just have a couple questions:
Is it possible to weight the **** more towards the bottom end on a 5 or 6" ***** ****?
Is there any flex in the tall *****? The stock S5 **** has just a little flex in the material which I can't stand, so I'm wondering if the delrin is hard enough to remain crisp at 5 or 6".
thanks, cheers

I could do that, but I can't weight a delrin ****. I split the **** into 2 pieces, hollow it out, & add brass powder, then glue back together. Problem is, I can only glue acrylic, as the delrin is so slick the glue doesn't adhere to it.

As for flex, everything's going to flex a little bit, I hate to say it but I think my **** will be prone to it as well, however I've yet to drive around in my car with one of my ***** style ***** in it. I can test it out in my car before sending it to you, if you would like?

Cheers!

I think its really great to be able to make up matching horn buttons, sift *****,. and e-brake buttons.,

Yep, tested before even getting it engraved. Felt good to me! Glad you like them, it was a fun interesting project!!
