I am a loyal LW member, and still am but I am little set back by the strange way all this has been handled, why is it that artisian get a free plug I mean that's great but I didn't see one when steve opened his doors or since then?

Steve is my friend as well as all of you I respect you all and have found some great friends here, but I fear a turn for the worse has come by leting politics mess up are happy home.

Were is artisian to help or answer in question here at LW?

Plus they have steped all over in there own cow pies let's stop bashing Steve and start playing fair.

If the vendors can help great if not Shut up.

This Is my thought something is a little off here and it's making no sence.

I respect you all and hope you think about this.

Everybody, cool your jets.

1. The only person I support in all this is Johanna. She's created this place, which has become essential to all of us. Whatever money, presents, freebies she can get, I say, You go girl!. n'uf said.

2. This is one of the only forums on the intertubes to allow vendors to participate. Guess what, That's GREAT. We get to see, hear, and talk with them. I say let them promote, feud, contribute. The more we see, the more we know. The more we know, the easier the decisions. Somebody mean mouths somebody else....use it to make your decisions....Vote with your pocketbook.

3. Cobra, Neels, Artisan, all produce something we need...good equipment at reasonable prices. Pick the one you like, or need. That's about as American as you can get. Who contributes to this forum, gets higher marks in my brain, but you have to add all the other factors in too. Sometimes you have to let go of the personal, and make business decisions.

Disclaimer: I have a Toro 3000. My next one maybe from CobraSteve, or neelsaddlery. Spread the wealth, we have limited resources. Keep them all in mind. As leatherworkers, you should realize we may be heading for a new golden age. Stick together, we're all we have.
