well more gluing than turning
years ago I made shift knobs for my 1967 international tractor. I decided to do a steering wheel cap over the week end.(plastic one long gone) I still need to sand it and give it 2 more coats of polly.
Made of maple ,walnut and bloodwood

I'm slow, but I do poor work.

Love it, great job. Every truck I drove was an International, would have loved to have one as my gear shift knob, of course I would take it with me when I traded trucks.

Nicely done! Having spent the majority of my working life at IH/Navistar I especially like those.

I would run in the ditch from stairing at the center cap on the steering wheel all the time.
Very nice.
