Maybe you and Shane are thinking the same person.

No, this is going to play out a little longer before lock. However the last thing we need is someone butt hurt for no reason.

Come to think of it another thing I want back is my thin ring slabbed piston I took out of my minty 266 and GAVE to him. (I bought a Meteor to stick back in it) He wanted it to put it in his "race saw" he never did anything with.
He said he was going to send me a good used 28" Tech Lite bar that he had and never did show up.

new 372xpw, had to replace this one for him too, along with a few more.

I also gave him an 028 super, new piston, gasket set, bearings, carb kit, and anything else needed to rebuild it. plus a full circle crank, to enter in the 028 build off. it never showed.
when he worked in the shop, we had about a 98% return on saws he worked on. every customer complained about him being rude.
I gave him a job, a place to live, food, covered his past debt's that I knew about, and paid him a good wage.
I gave him every opportunity to prove to everyone that he was a good guy, encouraged him to do so.
he left broke, saying he had family things to take care of.
he returned for my charity cut and stole the 362, didn't know the saw was gone till after he left. I called him and he said he was going to pay for it.
if I never see him again, it will be too soon.

I was never going to post any of my dealings with moody, it's my own fault that i'm out what i'm out. but when this thread started I thought it was time.
I put him in the past, and that is where he will stay.

Scott, I'm sure sorry to hear about everything your out trying to help the kid! I feel your pain thats for sure. Like I said earlier I have forgotten alot of the times I have helped him out one way or another. I had him 99% written off before this thread now its 100%.
Believe it or not a good part of the reason I kept hanging in there with him was because of you... knowing that you are a stand up individual. (I sent you a few WT 199's to fix long before I was even a member here)
I put 2 and 2 together shortly after he left your place that he wasn't welcome back. It really is a shame how some people conduct themselves!
I had to like your post for all your efforts.

years ago a young guy, in his 20's and known to be nothing but trouble, came in the shop looking for a new saw. he wanted to turn his life around. dad gave him a new saw and everything he needed to get started. no money down. he rode off on his bicycle. returned 2 days later with the saw in a sac smashed beyond repair. dad gave him another new saw. no money down. didn't see him again for at least 15 years. one day out of the blue he comes in and pays his bill with interest, with a smile on his face. he finally got on the right road.

That's a great story, but in Moody's case, the bill will HUGE, even without interests.

But you could be proud of yourself, you acted very well with him.

holy sh#t! I've never met you, but I know of you being a good guy and I had no idea of the mess that he put you in. The guy is such a liar and fairy tale teller that I would have never known. When he first came back he claimed that he was basically slave labor that was worked 7 days a week, worked so much that he hurt his back and probably needed surgery, and any money that he made went towards him going to Stihl school and his prize winning puppy. He claimed he made such a positive impact on your shop, that he was asked by a Stihl rep to run a dealership for him. He also said on several occasions that he had over $1000 invested in that 028 race saw, hand built the full circle crank himself, and it was going to be the saw that made him the "go to" guy in the business. He firmly believed that he was the best port guy out there, and everyone else was a bunch of idiots.

I'm sorry if it seems like I just keep harping on the guy. I'm just blown away that everything that came out of his mouth was a delusion of grandeur or just an outright lie. According to him, you were begging him to move up there and work permanently, eventually take over your shop.

I knew him to be shady but I'm blown away that he would flat out steal from you. Seriously, you need to press charges. new 362 (non M wasn't it?) is what $600-$650, in MO that's a class C felony. Once he crossed state lines with it, that opens up another set of charges....
