Wow congrats! This looks great! Will miss the party but I’ve got a Sydney weekend in December so will definitely visit then.
I’m bummed i can’t come to this Spirito!
In cool-story-bro news, my friend Sofia said she has a studio in the same building/very close to you. So I will get to kill two birds with one stone some time and visit both
Looks awesome!
Yeah, same building … swing past & make the world smaller 
This is why I came back, to find this thread and congratulate you Spirito!
Is this also where the new Kind Of gallery is?
Yep.
Double post.
See y’all tomorrow…
Thank Dylz …
And come along folks !!!
Can’t believe I haven’t posted here yet!
Well done Spizza, I know it’s been a dream of yours for a long time. I hope today goes well for you.
Save me a large T-shirt!
Great day talking shit with FOAers. Good to see Jim and Henri again and also meeting Kumo Keith and Benxlehner for the first time. Congrats again Ben, you’ve done a hell of a job 
Thank your father and uncle for the cavapi
The cavapi was lush.
Looks fantastic. Looking forward to swinging by next time I am in Sydney Town.
Good people, good spread, rad little space. Congratulations Ben!
Also… does your old man sell that cured meat? I’d be keen for a slab.
I’d want more than a slab ha ha couldn’t get enough.
It’s my uncle (Andy) that cures/smokes the beef. My dad used to but my uncle is the master so we all get it from him. Unfortunately he’s low on stocks and now that it’s getting warmer it’s unlikely he’ll be doing another batch for a while. I will ask but it’s something usually done over the winter months as otherwise the cold smoke process in warmer weather tends to dry the meat out a little too much.
I’ve been telling him for years that it’s a brilliant product but he’s been making it just as a hobby for himself and friends. I’ll guarantee next year around april/may that I’ll get a batch made just for the workshop. That and his home made Rakija (a kind of grappa) will keep us warm for all of 2015 !!!
Sorry that I still havent got it but you do that for a living now? I’m asking as my girlfriend works nerby and as we always have something that needs to be done.
yes !! Swing past … I’m open Wednesday to Sat (but I can open other times by appointment).

(thanks Ev)
Avvocato has a very cool build that’s coming up next
I’ll be doing everything … assembly, wheels built, basic bike fittings, restorations, full strip/clean/servicing. It’s a workshop but it’s a fun space too - tunes, coffee for customers, and a nice space to sit in the sun whilst I tinker on your bike.
