My apology

That was actually one of the things he got right. By the time he made that statement, the level of abuse he had taken was way beyond what he deserved based on, no matter how you dress it up, one persons word against another.
The original post in that thread was about cutting up the cue and then sending it to the customer........
Not that it proves anything but I want to see the video, shaky camera and all.
The best "cue dispute" video of all time was Tate posting a Palmer he had received hopping around on his table like a baby bird and Dave Sutton claiming "it must have happened in shipping, just file an insurance claim".

Here's the link for that Tate video, but it's been deleted! How dare he delete that video! Just who does Tate think he's dealing with here? A bunch of weinies or something?
I think it's time to vilify Tate if he doesn't re-post that video. And Pronto!!!

Sorry for that. I rarely delete any picture or video, but in this case I deleted it because several years after the incident, Dave asked me to. We had settled the issue and he said that some people were googling it and finding the video labeled "this is the cue Dave Sutton sold me" even after I had removed his name from the title.

OK - I'll re-post it for a day or two - it's good for a laugh.

Good thing it wasn't put on a lathe - I hate to see good lathes ruined like that.
OUch! That hurt a little to watch. Thanks for posting though; I can't believe someone would send that unless it was fully disclosed.
Personally this whole issue had not hurt Trent's reputation in my eyes, if he had chopped the butt up and made a video sure, but in my view the only thing he ever did wrong was accept someone elses wood and promise to send it back no matter how it came out.
The whole problem is that he didn't want to send out a defective cue and wanted to start over after he was done moving his shop, but you can't start over when you use someone elses shit.
I think it's a big lesson for any cuemaker to be mindful of.

I bought two brand new Palmers back in the days when they were fairly inexpensive and still being produced. BOTH of them warped pretty badly within a month or so of my buying them.
Sorry, got sidetracked from the real issue here (if there still is one).
