It doesn't make it right, Bill. The "other guys do it" defense is really sleazy, regardless of who does it, I can't believe you would recommend that someone STEAL (call it what you want but that's what it is) from a sponsor.

If I don't want to, I don't have to and nobody can make me (except my wife) cuz I'm RETIRED!!

Bill -

I never accused you of stealing.

I make more than you stated in your email.

I am working on a customer rod at this moment.

Finally, please do not send me any more potty-mouth emails. That is a business account that my wife checks.

Thanks

Can we keep this civil guys. All this was, was simply about a break. The original author stated clearly it was a fault of his. A warranty only applies to manufacturer's defects, so in this case it would not apply.

The solution had been posted and then everything went political. I do not believe this board was ever intended for deragatory personal agendas, but to advance the craft by offering information and advice in a professional manner from others all over the world. I along with my assumption of many others do not appreciate when we get this sort of 'discussion' on this board.

I apologize for stepping into the middle of this, but I this is completely uncalled for in a public setting.

i DID NOT START IT

TALK TO THE REST OF THE GUYS I AM JUST TRYING TO DEFEND MYSELF

Mr Barkley, you are a 'stand up' guy with some guts and a lot of rod building and life experience. My respect for you grows.

What is going on here? By the way, I made a repair using rod finish and a sleeve I made from the tip of a graphite rod I bought a couple of years before I started building. Works great. Thanks for the help.
