Cough, Cough, aaahhhemmmm. Oh its been done. The UUC is beautiful and does a very nice job and is worth the $300. I did mine for $150 by modifying a Schmiedmann adjustable short shifter so I can adjust it perfectly. I like a challenge. More to come on this project as well as a custom DSSR/selector rod from a solid titanium or stainless rod. I have both, but can't decide on which direction to go..... more mass verses less mass. Expect something this spring.
