My Bridge Head

OK, the cat is coming out of the bag, I hope it has some life .... I had the idea for this bridge because of frustration using the conventional metal bridge head. I often brushed the top of interfering balls while cueing over them, I can't see the bottom of the shaft nor the top of the interference. Hey, I'm 5'5", what can I say ! I also have problems manouvering a metal bridge close to other balls, again they're hard to see. So, my bridge is transparent ! It really helps when you can see what you are trying to hit !!! While making the first prototypes another innovation was added. I had problems getting backspin when using a conventional bridge. To help, I cleaned up the inner part of my house bridge and started cueing through the holes. Of course you can easily scratch up a shaft if you try this on some bridges, but in the transparent bridge there are holes for this purpose. In total the bridge offers 5 distinct cueing heights, 3 from the conventional rest shapes, and the other two from the holes (horizontal for a low bottom shot, vertical for a moderate-high rest). The clamp works very nicely on tips from 10mm to 13mm. I'd be reluctant to put it on my 13mm plaing cue, but hey, that's what house cues are for ! An 11mm or 12mm tip is perfect. The inner linning is rubbery, and does not score or mark ferrules or shafts from what I've seen so far. The clamp is easily snugged down with a turn or two by hand, and comes off just as well. I'd love to hear what you think of this bridge ... Dave

I purchased the Keller Justabridge after seeing the following video on the BCA website. I attach it to my breakcue.
