Lend money? Heck no. In Tyler's case I'd go right to his new shop and reposes something worth the money he owes me. Or I'd be knocking on his front door seven days a week asking about my money. Sure I'll sell you equipment on credit just give me title to one of those vehicles, with a key...
The last nice thing I did was pick up a hot water heater on my account for $600 for another local builder who I have known for years. He didn't want to pay me so I knocked on his beach house door every morning until he did. Finally he did when I said either you pay me or I'm going to your job and cutting the heater out. Scum bag, no more favors.

From what I have seen on the various People's Court type shows is that any sort of business transactions needs to be cleraly written down and signed for.
That way you have legal proof to recover something if there is a default.
When you are the one paying and are paying some sort of payment ore even an exchange of goods or work you need to get something it writing that you paid.
