Pool Bridge Clip

I have a ‘moosehead’ style bridge head designed to slip onto a cue to replace a regular pool bridge, however, when there are no house cues readily available, I want to use it on my breaking cue. Problem is the shaft of my breaking cue is 14mm and trying to jam it through the bridge head grommet is a real pain and messes with the tip of my breaking cue.

My solution to this problem was to create a simple ‘clip’ that can be inserted into the bridge head grommet and then the combined assembly can be ‘clipped’ to my breaking cue. Easy to attach and remove – doesn’t take up much space in my bag – problem solved.

I print these in PETG so there is some flex when clipping to the cue. 

I also print them standing up with supports enabled:

I made this for my break cue which is 14mm – some of the other guys on my team want one and some have different sized cues so I put profiles out there for 12.5mm / 12.75mm / 13mm / 13.25mm / 13.5mm / 13.75mm and 14mm. I think this should cover most cues.

If you want to test fit the clip before printing there are small ‘test clips’ for each size so you can double check the fit.
