This is all about lynching and blood letting. Were talking about a couple of busted fins for christ sake and some here want a pound of flesh.
I'm not siding with Brad or Joat or Trall, but there was definatly collusion and skulldugary here.
So what if Brad knew the fins were busted! He was either hoping Joat didn't notice or give a damn and if he did notice restitution could be made.
It's obvious both parties reluctantly made that deal with the 066 and both parties wanted to beat each other to the punch.
But he has run the gauntlet. There isn't a saw builder that hasn't been run out on a rail here, Mainly for two reasons, they either got bigger than their boots or they wanted the whole enchelada or both.
Who here hasn't sold, bought or unloaded something that was sub par?
Those claiming to be purer than the driven snow are the ones to avoid as are the overnight sensations who new didly squat about saws 6 months ago.
No one wins here, but if the three parties can surmount this debacle they will be better men for it.
