I saw another home built shifter with that part cut out of a fairly thick plastic cutting board.
The end product looked like it was made out of the plastic that machinists make stuff out of.
I would think the plastic would be much more durable.

Word
The cutting boards are pretty popular there too. That same poster had made a previous shifter out of cutting board material. Can't say why he changed.
Howard_Casto:
Probably because the stuff eats up bits like nobody's business and makes a huge mess. Imho it's still worth the effort, but you know how some people are. ;)
HaRuMaN: Yup it's still there apparently. I liked the irony of linking to a picture of a stick from 1997 on a Geocities site. :D
