Cool as fook Steve

I guess i should be saying that I'm amazed at you're resto but I not

come to expect it from you mate

How it should be done

How long did you spend on each stem?

Jt · « **Reply #80 on:** February 02, 2010, 07:47 PM »

think they both done an equally good job there if i'm honest...

steve's resto work is faultless, but have to say, neils is also coming on strong..

proper passion for it, and a good way to fund your habit, buying stuff fooked, doing it up, having a fiddle, and the selling/trading it into more and/ or better stuff and doing it over again.

sensible really.

end results speak for themselves...i wish i had the apptitude and patience

well done lads

but some people like what i do and some people HATE what i do . in such a small community i have people that follow my threads and stick there childish little digs in every one can see it . i get alot of phone calls and messages chatting about this . and the people that play these childish games have nothing better to do , they should put there minds to maybe trying a bit refirbing instead of trying to cause keyboard trouble . alot of these people had a go at nick MUNNERS i have read back through there post . and nicks parting words was that i would be the next escape goat but unlike nick i have learned not to bit , i used to but no longer. so as for the couple of penises that post sh1te patta in my thread BORING it only makes you smile no one else ...

i would much rather be know as a good restorer than a theif or trouble maker

pointless post for the man with the £500 stem.

fooked off wiht this to be honest.

thing is JJ, as much as you play the fooking upstanding member, your no fooking better yourself.

i am referring to the 500 pound, yes, 500 fooking pound hutch stem you tried to sell on ebay...

giving neil shit for doing what he does? you should be fooking ashamed and embarassed for being such a small minded hypocrite.

crying shame, because 99% of the time your a stand up bloke with a love for BMX, but sometimes,you , and some of your high and mighty mates make for grim reading with your sniping comments and your bullying banter.

there you go.

have some of that

Well youre entiled to youre opinion JT

As for the £500 stem one eBay, yeah I put the price on it based on the last one I saw that was NOs and of the deep H variety that sold on eBay for £425. So not that far out huh. Wouldnt be the first to but something rare on eBay for a 'high' price in the off chance it will sell.

Why have I given Neil shit for what he does. I posted compliments to SteveP's amazing work on the his Hutch stems cos that the way it should be done IMHO. Credit where credits due huh. If you wanna know my thoughts on Neils stem i think it sucks! But hey I didnt post that so guess i'm wrong for that to. Fact is restoring a Hutch stem isnt easy. Tried it my self and been very disappointed with the results to. Rounded corners just dont cut it on a Hutch stem. The square edges are part of the design and should be kept as should the detailing whethr it be a deep H or Western H. Yes Neil's stem is better than it was before, but it aint right.

As for comments JT, c'mon you like a snipe here and there. I'm know more a bully than you. Be honest fella. You may have been quiet on the sniping front recently, maybe thans down to becoming a parent again. Have heard it changes a man?

Embarressed? Me? No. Its an open forum. Dont post anything if you cant take cristism. Especially threads that are looking for a response from its readers.

Hypocrite? Me? No. Well no more than you and the next person anyway.

have some of that

BTW, who are my 'high and mighty' mates?
