Thanks, I'm gonna purchase the tamper piston and thread first. And then I guess I'll make a trip to Auto Zone and see what happens.

Interesting, I don't see any screw holes on the tamper base threads... do you need to drill them on or something?

Thanks a ton. I'm gonna give it a shot. I'll probably order a base and thread tomorrow and check out Auto Zone or something.

I tried going to Auto Zone's website, and they had something that looks pretty identical to the skull handle I've been looking for. I wouldn't be surprised if Espresso Parts used these shift knobs...

There are some variants of it, but for the most part, this one seems to fit the bill. The only thing is, do you know if Espresso Parts would be willing to sell me some black bezel rings? They only have brass colored rings, but I don't think brass would go well with the silver.

BTW I was surfing the net for shift knobs, and check this one out. Looks super sweet, but I doubt it would make sense on a tamper, just because the bottom is pretty wide. I don't know how it would screw on to a tamper piston... it might look weird, right? Also, it looks like something you mold on to your stick... I don't see anything for threading, at least from the pictures available.

Also, I was looking at some bullet shift knobs, and I thought it would be really sick if there was a shift knob for Bullet Bill.

Also let me know how you think this gun barrel style shift knob would work on an EP tamper... I like it, but it probably won't work, simply because it seems to have a triple polished chrome finish, whereas the EP tamper pistons aren't polished.

Wow, really?

Will shift knobs fit in the tamper piston? That would be pretty amazing...
