randywhite30,
And the plot thickens....Oh, the webs we weave.
Just owning a lathe does not make you a CM. Nor does tip & ferrule replacement experience.
I don't know you but by the words you write and the attitude contained in those words.
Spite is a woman's greatest weapon yet this is your motivation.
In case you haven't yet realized it, you've just scored a 9.9 on the F-up meter.
Ryan has nothing to fear from your planned entry into cue-making. Neither does anyone else.
Ryan's position in this world is based on his talent and experience. He's one of the best.
From what I've read so far, he's been totally honest & upfront with you. You should have been the same.

If he has nothing to worry about why does he care what I am doing? If I suck at what I do he should get more business, right?
And as far as lying, I never did. I told him I was going to Beatrice to and I asked for pointers because I know hes been doing it for awhile and know alot more than I do about repairs.
As for the City tournament I asked Marshall if I could be the second please there.
As to the Porper Lathe I called Connie asked about buying a Lathe, she called Rory to ask about it, she returned my call and told me that Rory said no. I called Proper and talked to them, they told me that Rory has said not to sell a lathe to me or anyone in Lincoln. So it seems to me the only one thats trying to pull anything is the company, and Ryan.
I have no problems with anyone I did make up my mind that I will build cues. And I will start working the tournaments here in town and out of town.
I'm currently working on a few bars that have weekly tournaments, next year city tournament will go out for bid, and I will be bidding. I will also go for the Midwest tournament.
Ryan will no longer be the only one in town doing repairs.
Just one more thing about character. You started this pissing contest on a public forum. The problem I have I dropped to your level and allowed myself to get wrapped up in this. That was my fault.
