Yeah it looks like you are correct, interesting that the 920 and RC had the same colour frame for that year. The 920 was a carbon frame but had pretty basic spec from what I recall, I figured the groupset was an upgrade from stock.

I see a black and green one in the pics...

Its a 2016 Spark 920. I recall deciding between that and an Anthem at the time.

Thanks for the tip. I read through his site, seems like he was a really nice guy. Did you make the recess tool and jam chucks when you made your set?

Have you seen these? http://www.mrwoodturner.co.za/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=42_160&products_id=1109 Super useful if you are going to be producing a lot of mills.

Your quality of work is just amazing, that bench is a thing of beauty!! I saw the videos and the wagon vise works perfectly.

Very cool! I wanted to make some but it would have meant buying some weirdly sized forstner bits that I wouldnt use for anything else. How are you handling all of the inner dimensions? dedicated MT2 mill cutter?

Haha! yeah look I never miss a chance to throw in some AvE references! I couldnt figure a good way to get angry pixies in there, but the wood elves and tree carcasses is always a fan favourite.

Looks like its been treated to a few hot suppers over its time, probably still got plenty of chooch left in it though. Those brushed motorbs are quite difficult to kill. I hear Rotorua has amazing trails, good excuse to get a ride in.

I have been involved in major software rollouts for a really long time, one of the things I have noticed is that some users go through a similar process to the grief process when a system changes! It can be really daunting and causes a lot of anger and frustration. I also know that in follow up checks that I did 30 days after go-live that the most vocal people against the new system/layouts/changes would not be willing to go back to the old system as they were now used to the new and it was indeed better. I guess what Im trying to say is, give it some time, its actually pretty good and it has some nice new features. Now if only @Matt would implement that dark theme then all would be well.

I cant seem to clear the notifications that pop up at the bottom of the screen when using Chrome on Windows 10. I click the x but it just pops up the same thing again and the loop continues. Anyone else experiencing that?

I saw in a recent Scott Brown video how bare the shelves in Placemakers are. The Americans are really crying about the prices, I like to think of the increases as giving the rest of the world a taste of what living in Africa is like Prices here are always super volatile.

Software rollouts are no fun at all. Its always great when you havent slept in 48 hours and have to make a go/no-go call.

I think it actually pops up in realtime depending on the type of device they are using. @Pure Savage

I feel like I should be tagging you in all future posts... for science. @Patchelicious

This should be interesting, the "cyclist" doesnt look overly fit from those pics.

So any chance you will implement a dark theme along with these upgrades? Its pretty jarring going from my all dark themed desktop to suddenly burning my eyes out on the all white background... The 90's called and asked if they can have their colour scheme back ????

Most South African's cant get past commercial lagers, Im still convinced it's because that is all we have commercially available. I used to enjoy them, but since I started brewing I cant drink SAB anymore, its just too boring and bland.

Looks like a good selection of European styles. Those are really difficult beers to brew, I must give them a go.

That is really cool, half of the problem with craft beers in SA is that they arent very fresh. With a very hoppy style like IPA you need to get into them before they lose some of that hop flavour.

Ahh, seems my search skills are lacking. I was pretty sure there was something along these lines already.

Im really enjoying the black IPA from RHBC, if you are in PE or willing to order online then it wont disappoint. https://richmondhillbrewing.com/product/fever-dream-6-3-west-coast-black-ipa/

I figured if we have a wine thread then it makes sense to have a craft beer thread Im a big fan of craft beers, but the availability of certain styles in SA is lacking so I have been home brewing for almost two years now. I figured this could be a place for general discussions and beers you have found that taste great.
