He clearly is trying to build his skills at the expense of his customers. Because people are lining up (including you) to buy his humidors, should be no reason for you now to take issue with waxing moon over what you expected. It is a hand built humidor, made of exotic woods. Sorry it turned out to be an opaque diamond when you expected flawless.

truth be known - everyone at one time or another made a similar bad choice. It would be awfully nice for wm to make it right with you, but it appears he does not have the cash flow to make that happen.

if it makes you feel any better - my father, a life long woodworker (carpenter) said he could not produce what waxing moon made. Despite its flaws, he thinks it's a decent specimen.

I have no idea who waxing moon is, other than he made about a dozen posts here several years ago. What I'm now reading is interesting - and reinforces why I like to chase the amateur humidor builders off this board when they try to setup their lemonade stand. You've confirmed what I suspected several years ago - I will never buy a humidor from him. Thanks for the heads up...
Unfortunately Ed has made this his full time job with a shop and other workers. He has buyers at other forums to keep him in business. I would have had not problem if he just fixed the concerns I had when he said he would. My goal was to bring this out to others looking to him for builds. There are some people that have had the same problem.

Someone ought to get him to come over here and show him this thread. If he wants to take issue with any of swift's statements, it might be a good idea for him to do just that.

That would be great for him to comment on any of the post I have made. He can fell free to post any email I have sent him.

If its too early for a newb like me to call someone out...sorry. I hate liars and cheats!

Point out any post that I am lying in. Like you I hate a cheat and a liar. The worst is someone not keeping there word. Next someone making false statement on a subject they have no idea about.
