After several months of this horrible process, this is what I have been left with. Patrick offered to fix it but I have decided to put the experience behind me and move on. I felt obligated to post pictures so everyone can see the work Steve does. Disappointing is the nicest way I can put it. If he was an honest upstanding person, the quality of his work would be enough to look elsewhere. Add in everything else and you would quickly see that no sane person would use him for any cue projects. It really is unfortunate.
As of now, I'm hoping to find someone that could get the joint fixed properly. If someone has time to do it please let me know. I'm already 140.00+ into it so why stop now? Thanks for everyone's help.
For anyone looking for a quality cue, great value, beautiful work and never ever have to worry about any funny business, outrageous delays etc etc I want to recommend Bob Frey. I do know for a fact that no cue leaves his shop until he considers it perfect. Just food for thought for those that may not already know.
This is the finished product? doesn't even look like it has finish on it? Very strange for anyone to let this out of there shop knowing full well there going to get lambasted for it.There's really no defence at all why anyone would think this is exceptable .After several months of this horrible process, this is what I have been left with.

I asked for no finish. Maybe he thought I didn't want the cue to ever be be "finished" which is why he kept it so long. :grin:
Looks like you got screwed, no good cue maker would put out work like this... I've tried reading allot of this post there is allot of shady crap going on. I really feel for you. My name is Joeseph Rose , with ( Rose Cues ) and I'm not sure if your problem has been fixed yet, but at this point I'm pissed off at Wanna be cue smith's. I'm willing to hook you up, if you pay shipping cost and $10 to cover the bare materials I'll redue that work and make it PERFECT and it will only take me 1 week . Well the work will only take a few hours at very most but cure time and then putting on the clear coat letting that cure and etc. Not sure if you have already got this fixed don't have allot of time to read all this post due to it being so freaking big lol but I'm willing to donate my time to helping you out, you can visit my Rose Cues facebook page and read my reviews, they are all 5 star ratings. I'm a retired military vet. Let me know if I can be of any service to you jorose95@gmail.comContact Ryan at muellers..He does great work..
