This is a designed product that resolves 2 very common issues with billiards.

First, think of the “CueBuddy” as a rolling bridge that alleviates the need for a bridge in those ‘hard to reach’ shots. It has been approved by the APA for official Tournament Use and helps any adult pool player by adding this product in their pool cue bag. Adding the “CUEBUDDY” to the end of any pool cue makes it very easy to quickly reach those shots without the use of a bridge (the 2 stick method).

Second, it resolves a very common problem for pool table owners with children. This also applies to bumper pool tables and snooker tables. When we were very young, my uncle never let us play on his pool table using any pool cues. “Only roll the balls around” was what we heard :-) Many owners do not want children playing on their pool tables for fear of the children ripping or scarring the pool table fabric with the adult pool sticks.   They can use smaller pool sticks but that does not alleviate the worry of a torn or streaked pool table fabric.   The “CueBuddy” allows young children (ages 6-12) to play pool but makes it impossible to scratch the table.   Children lack the dexterity needed to make a bridge with their front hand and can never adequately hold onto the pool stick properly.  The “CueBuddy can be added to any pool stick and allows any child to learn the game of pool yet never do any physical damage to the table, and yet allows them to hit the cue ball with comfort and accuracy.  

The “CueBuddy” allows children to play on any pool table surface using only one hand, line up the cue ball, and play without learning the complex two-hand positions.  The “CueBuddy” (pool stick add-on) will always be lined up at the correct height of the cue ball and the user simply needs to push the stick forward to hit the cue ball. Aiming is just as easy.

The main white body of the  “Cue Buddy” is made at home with a 3D printer (as shown to the right). A variety of color combinations can be built using the 5 wheel colors (Black, Grey, Green, White & Red).

Micarta And Its Many Myths

What is micarta? The actual word and definition has become diluted through the decades since it's invention in and around 1911 by Westinghouse Electric Corporation.  Micarta was actually produced as an industrial laminate for electrical insulation.  Soon afterwards it was started to be used as a decorative laminate and thus Formica was born.  Both products were marketed under the trade name 'micarta'.  As such, it became used generically.  Micarta today has been used by any laminated composite material including glass epoxy otherwise known as G10.

Westinghouse produced what is called 'antique ivory', better known as a grade FR-2 laminate.  This was comprised of paper sheets which were soaked in epoxy resin and then baked and pressed into huge sheets.  The color was incidental as it was an industrial product.  Color was really never a goal of any industrial laminate.  In fact, the color from run to run varied greatly.  The purpose of the FT-2 was to be an electrical insulator with different characteristics than the much more common paper grades which were manufactured with phenolic resins.

As for the asbestos laminates we hear so much about, there were actually two grades.  We believe neither of these two grades have been produced in the USA since the mid 1960's or so.  They were indeed manufactured in Europe during the 1970's.  This material was for industrial use as an electrical insulator as well.  This material is extremely dangerous as it is asbestos based.  Fortunately, little remains today.

The Westinghouse micarta division was eventually sold to International Paper (IP) in 1995 an was run for several years.  They manufactured these micarta laminates for decorative purposes while based in South Carolina.  Eventually IP sold the facility and it was subsequently sold again.  It was eventually liquidated and sold off around 2004 or thereabouts.
