Ok here we go.
Worked until 1 in the morning for something that most people wont even like or do.
Things youll need.
I used 3/4 inch Mdf.

A hole-saw. Its all about how wide you want to make the shifter.

Clamps.

A good-ol-drillbity set.

A paddle bit or a bit like this.

A drill and or a drillpress and glue.
Now youll need some other stuff but that will come later.
Take your mdf and drill it out with the holesaw. Two or three holes depending want your shifter to look, I did three.

Sand off any burrs the saw left.

Glue the pieces together.

Clamp them all together.

Let them sit for about 10 to 15 minutes to dry then sand the sides so all of them line up.

Skip the next step unless you are going to shape your shifter.
Get a power drill and a lag or cut-off screw of some sort.

Screw it into a predrilled hole in the mdf(or it will crack it).

Use a piece of sand paper or a sanding block to sand the shifter down to any shape you want, by drilling back and forth on the sand paper.

Drill using a 5/8 paddle bit in the top of the shifter deep enough for the nut to fit in.

Drill using a 11/16 paddle bit for the head of the nut to fit in.(Dont have a pic but just deep enough to look like this)
http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...X/IMAG0437.jpg
Drill out the bottom up to about a half inch from the nut hole you just drilled using the big bit in the begining of the thread.

I added this because I thought it looked better.

And add washers to add weight and make it sit at the right height.
http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...X/IMAG0440.jpg
This is what it should look like.
http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...X/IMAG0441.jpg
Shorter than stock and a shorter throw.
http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...X/IMAG0444.jpg
Stock height.
