DIY – How to Make a Human Hand Stick Shifter for your Car!

Do you have a manual stick-shift car?  Then, you might want to look into building your own Human Hand Stick Shifter and do lots of high fives everytime you drive.

I think few people who drive manual transmission cars actively think about driving as controlling a gigantic machine moving with a lot of momentum, via a huge rod that goes directly through the floor and moves a set of meshing teeth around in an engine that’s actually running. It’s one of the few places today where you’re moving mechanical bits around in a real machine. So the idea behind the hand is to remember that you’re working with the car to make it move, sort of holding the car’s hand.
