Hard times lol... Let me tell you about hard times and show you some picutres of hard times ... First of all Jeff you have left me have several of your cues and do you ever see me use them. I use to see the pissed off look you would get when I would pull out my Sly's or my Patrick as my main player. I also remember when I first got my Patrick and your wife saw it and fell in love with and the Ring tail wrap ... And then asked you why you could never build anything that nice ... That brother is hard times.... I hope you did get the cue fixed and get the wobble out of it ... Becuase I pity the pool soul who is going to shell out the cash to get it of course you are making out getting 450.00 off of me for the cue then selling it again for more money that a double profit on a cue you have no money in ... I would not be shocked if it was your wife or your borther who gets it ... I don't feel slighted in the least as you know it would of just been another one of your Shi!!y cues that sat in my pool rack collecting dust ... Like you use to call it where I put all your cues for guests to beat up on ... I remember you use to always tell me that your cues are as good as Sly's ... And you remember I use to always lower my head and decline to answer that was better to me then lyeing to you ... You could nor will you ever come close to building a cue as well as Sly does ... For one your just to cheap... You will never spend the money to put into quality material.. Yes the ring work in the cue is as I ordered it ... But the Holly was suppose to be the White American Holly ... I remember I told you that was not the color holly I wanted and your reply was it will turn white when you shave it down and clean it up ... You have no idea of what you are talking about ... This holly was just cheaper that is why you used it to save money and get a bigger profit... It also shows how much you know about cue making ... Had you used the white Holly the ring work would of looked good in it ... Now it don't, if you look at the cue you did not even match the butt cap up to the handle in color of Coco... It looks like hell ... And it use to flop like a fish when you rolled it ... No you keep it and sell it to someone else I will be glad to get back the 450.00 I paid you to buy materials with ... That you pocketed and went with cheap stuff I did not want ... Now for the pictures I promised showing hard times ....
This is Jeffs new saw machine this is the new machine Jeff bought with all the money he kept and refused to refund when the first of many of the threads came out kocking the qualtiy of Jeff's cues and asking for a refund ... This is how he starts to get his taper on his cues ... Before he got this he had a old wood lather that we would crank up with a pull rope llike a lawn mower ... No taper bar all taper is done by hand and guess work and sanding by hand so it is never the same high in some places low in others then he applies his 22.00 a gallon auto finish .... Jeff would have you believe by the pictures of the above cue that his shop is inside but if you look at the saw machine you will see the plastic he has wrapped around his front porch complete with holes for wind and rain to come into his shop ... his shop sets outside on his front porch ... I have bought him alot of wood trying to get him to get the quality up ... And it would pain me when I would go to his house and see the wood setting outside and you could see the moisture twisting the wood and warping it ...
This is how Jeff finshishes his cues and how he hangs them to dry and stores them on his front porch out in the weather if you look you can see the vinyl siding in the background that is the front of his house again his shop is actually outside in the weather where he keeps all his cues and wood and materials ... Also if you look behind the thinner can you will see where he left the cue in the pictures outside set for months and warp ... You can see the black and white ring work in it you can also see in the back ground how he stores his wood outside in the weather... Jeff you can talk about hard times all you want but me and all of these AZ'ers here pay to feed your family with our tax dollars ... Brother with all the food stamps you get a month because you will not get a job and help support your family to me that is hard times .. You have a house you will never see paid off .. My house is paid for I pay my own bills and I don't have to hustle my friends or the people here on AZ to take thier money ... Or depend on others tax dollars to feed my family ...
Also I recieved alot of emails where you were telling people that you had cancer and had to have a major operation to cut the cancer out so you could not refund thier money ... When they asked me I told them that was not the truth ... You don't even have a doctor you have to go to the clinic and you will not go unless it is a emergency ... Like recently with all the fish scales you have all over your body and scabs all over your private parts ... that you say are oozing blood through your pants ...I think you said it was sorieces ...You would not go to the doctors for that till it got real bad and that is because you have no health insurance ... Still that does not excuse you for lying to these people here telling them you have cancer and need a operation when you know that is not true only to avoid giving them a refund ... That brother is hard times you see I have insurance because I get up and go to work everyday... Brother your the poster child for hard times ... Need I go on???
On closing I will say this you will never be a good cue maker and you know it now your turning to buying blanks because of all the complaints, so you are really becoming a assembler and a poor one at that ...No you will never be as good as Sly or many of these cue makers out here becuase your not in it for the love of cue making ... Your only desire is to put out the cheapest product possible and take the money and run ... That is hard times and it tells the whole story about you ...
