Damn Jon, nice work on the center console. I may get to work on something like that after I make sure that my windshields don't leak anymore.

Sweet F-350 too. Is it an 08' or 09'? I love my 02' F-250. Here's a pic of mine:

That looks really nice. Only thing I'd change would be the hinge location on the armrest. I'd have done it from the side. Do you have any during shots as to how you mocked it up. I've been trying to talk myself into this for years....?

Default Does anybody have the plans for a console like this?

I am a high school student and I want to make a center console for my 1967 Mustang in my woodshop class. If anybody has any plans or anything that can help me build a center console please message me..Thanks

That is impressive!!! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the upholstery cost or was that included in the quote?
I really like it.

Really love the center console. It turned out great. I have been looking at the Alpine X-305 for my car and love the idea of the large clock display and ipod controls built into it. Can you post shots of how you made your console or start another thread on how you mocked it up? I plan on putting a standard in my car later but love how clean your console turned out.

Looks awesome!

Only a couple of things jumped out at me.
The hinges on the back paint them black or go hidden hinge.
The unfinished look of the shifter hole shouldnt be seeing mdf and staples.
Surprised they didnt wrap to underside and staple there.
Like I said it looks great just lil details will pop when everything else looks so Effin sweet!
Great design great construction over all you did a great job.
