DESCRIPTION
Saturn 8 Ball Pool Cue
This 57” cue is crafted by Peradon in England from the highest grade, kiln dried, North American Ash and exotic Ebony.
Manufacture & Specifications
The ash is carefully selected for strength and straightness
before the finest, genuine Ebony butt timber is spliced to the cue
by hand and the cue is shaped to produce the distinctive four round
point pattern of a hand spliced cue.
The four decorative Olivewood splices with Sycamore veneers are
then hand spliced to the Ebony butt. In order to reduce stress to
the timbers the cue is then shaped over a period of time until the
final tapered shape is achieved, after which the numerous sanding
and finishing processes are then undertaken to achieve a 'silk
smooth' finish.
To eliminate joint problems the two sections of the 'quick action'
joint are each precision turned from a single piece of solid brass
and precisely fitted 16" from the butt end to give the shaft length
of 41".
On this cue the shaft is fitted with the female section of the
joint, whilst the butt is fitted with the male. Cleverly, this
enables the player to remove the 16" butt section of the cue and
screw the 6" mini butt (supplied with the cue) directly into the
shaft. This makes a 47" cue for those occasional awkward shots in
restricted spaces.
The butt of the cue is also fitted with a 'quick action' butt end
joint which will also accept the 6" mini butt supplied with the
cue. This lengthens the cue to 63" enabling the player to use the
cue more easily on some shots that require a rest.
The butt is finished with a Peradon Hawk name disc.
This cue features a solid brass ferrule and 8 to 8½mm
Elkmaster tip.

* The quality of the ash shaft is of the utmost importance when crafting a cue. Shafts are extensively selected with only a small percentage of the pieces processed making the grade for production of these cues. In order to maintain the highest standards of selection Peradon purchase more ash than any other English cue makers.
