  1. Dude, that's a wonderful contraption. Nice one!
  2. "I ride a spaz" Yeah, earth-shatteringly painful to admit, I'm sure.
  3. Add 44 teeth into that, and we have a great selection!
  4. NICE!!! I used to love smoking stuff in my Weber. Sadly, it's found a new home now that I don't have an outside space. If you want a bit more control and a longer & lower burn, try the Snake Method for the briquettes. It's a low & slow auto-feeding setup that allows a far easier control of the heat and smoking process.
  5. My sentiments exactly, though the sputtering isn't really an issue for me. It only happens when the phone switches between WiFi & Mobile data. I know some bluetooth can be sensitive to WiFi connections (my laptop does the same, but with ALL BT headies and ALL the time) For the price I paid for them (R 1,500 or so before e-bucks on a takealot sale) the sputtering isn't as much of an issue for me.
  6. Wow, man. Nice one! Out of interest, what did the leather itself set you back?
  7. Spokey, where are you based? I may have to make a road trip out of it when the Moto is up and running. Will come up with a mate of mine if that's okay. A fellow motard
  8. Oh my.... My, oh my.
  9. Not 100% sure on that, but I am sure they have that option. Not my area of expertise, yet. EDIT: Yes, you can. There are multiple top 40 tracker funds available.
  10. So the frame stripping has started on the chopped xr500r (rear seat frame was chopped shorter by previous owner) Not going to powder coat, just spray like I've done the plastics. Got the paint, paint stripper and primer ready to go. Initially stripping with a wire brush attachment then stripper with any tough stuff or nooks and crannies. On the list to buy. Carb, battery, rewound stator (12v) and headlight. Brake shoes are brand new, as are all the bearings. Seat is already recovered (and very well, too) and ok my not putting any of the side plastics on. Also need a new bar as the original unit is bent. Not gonna change the forks just yet. On the road for least cash is the goal at the moment. I'll be taking pics as I go and then posting em in bunches.
  11. Diff government regulations during COVID, basically.
  12. NBD for the crotch-goblin, after his bike got stolen from my garage. Yes, it's THE Jew-Bike! Fresh from the August.
  13. I don't think Keanu needs to worry about more money. The Matrix set him up for almost life, and he's a pretty down to earth character. Probably doing it because he wants to. Like his appearance in Cyberpunk 2077 stuff. Same reason he's doing a Matrix 4 thing. 'Cos he likes doing it.
  14. Personally, I think it's not corny *enough*. Otherwise, it's excellent.
  15. With all those pubs he's been going to, you're likely faaaaar ahead of him. ????
  16. I agree, but I prefer to give the benefit of the doubt in these circumstances. I know I've missed emails before, and had to fight fires because of that, so I was extending the same courtesy. I've never dealt with Anton personally, though, so I'm not sure if this was a once-off or a standard thing.
  17. oooooh, another one of DJR's projects! Subbed.
  18. Well, they're brand new and unused, so.... probably.
  19. Yes. It depends on the project, though. Some hand tools are just better than machines. Like, I'll never get my electric planer out for a piece unless it's REALLY bad, as they have a tendency to run away if you're not extremely careful. Likewise, hand-saws. Japanese hand saws, particularly, but any hand saw is a joy to use in the right applications. Chisels, hand drills, files and so on. Love em.
  20. Maybe it fell through the cracks. Have you ever not seen an email and 8 days later you do, or you read it, intending to reply and something happens and all of a sudden it's forgotten? Follow it up and send him another one. Hi Anton, not sure if you saw this mail I sent last week, please could you get back to me as soon as possible. Thanks.
  21. It's optional. You don't have to pay. If you want discounted boost options for your sale items, or one of the features that the normal platform doesn't have, then pay. Otherwise, keep your adverts and let the people who want to enjoy those extra "plus" benefits do so. EDIT: Reading this afterwards, it sounds as if there's a harsh tone in there. That was definitely not my intention, TDFN.
  22. Dude, those are mint!
