Wow folks. Did this get blown WAY of of proportion. I'm usually quiet, but I have seen a lot of me mention. So, I would like to respond now.Dean- I know your intentions were good, and thanx for the kind words and I can see what you were saying, but mike is right about one thing, it MIGHT have been taken the wrong way.Mike- I also know your intentions were good, trying to make peace. But it MIGHT not have gotten to the argument stage had you not posted "it will only cause fights," it was like an invitation to throw down. Will it cause me to lose a few sales, I doubt it. I didn't say the comments and I think ppl can see that.Farid- I don't however feel your intentions were good. You have no idea what my gloves are like. I have held alot of maker's gloves in my hands. Mine are heavy duty and built to last. Anders and I use virtually identical materials. Thickness, weight, the whole shabang. As far as reference goes, I have met a lot of ppl doing this. A lot who actually own some screen gloves. What does that mean, dead on templates on some of the gloves. So, that goes to show my point. You don't know jack shit about me. So, don't talk about what you don't know.Lastly, I just want to say that Anders is a great glove maker. Maybe the best. The biggest difference between Anders and myself is the fact he has been doing this for 8 years. Myself, a little over 2. I have nothing but respect for his work. I am working my ass off to be on the same level, but after doing this for a while now, it's hard to get out from behind the huge shadow left by Anders and Kruegear's Travis. So, any potential glove maker's out there be warned: You better have some thick goddamn skin or you will NEVER make it in this hobby.So, if you will excuse me, I have some gloves to make. <img src=\"http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":wink:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"wink.gif\" /> - Mark
