CT02/05/P English Pool Playing Cue 1 Piece 8.5mm

CT02/05/P English pool playing cue with 1 piece construction and 8.5mm tip

CT02/05/P is a Chalky Trousers Second Edition playing cue, built for English pool players who want a traditional full-length 1 piece feel, clear feedback and confident cue-ball control.

The First Edition went better than expected, so the Second Edition keeps the same straightforward approach: carefully selected cues, clear specifications and proper preparation before release.

This English pool playing cue has a 1 piece construction, 8.5mm tip, brass ferrule, 17.4oz weight and 57.2" length. The butt features green engineered sandalwood with purple veneers, combining a distinctive green wood finish with contrasting purple detail.

Built for match play

CT02/05/P is positioned as a playing cue, so the focus is regular match play, cue-ball control, touch and feel rather than repeated impact breaking.

At 17.4oz, this is the lightest playing cue within the Second Edition batch, giving it a quicker and lighter feel through the shot. The 8.5mm tip also sits toward the finer end of the range, suited to players who prefer a smaller point of contact for controlled cue-ball work.

Checked properly before it carries the badge

Every cue is supplied to Crafted Cues for full inspection and preparation before release. Nothing is dispatched without being properly checked, refined and made table-ready.

• The shaft is hand sanded and oiled
• The tip is professionally fitted
• The ferrule and overall construction are inspected
• Straightness and balance are checked
• The grain and finish are enhanced and protected

Only once it meets the required standard does it carry the Chalky Trousers badge.

Why choose a 1 piece playing cue?

A 1 piece cue keeps the construction full length with no main joint. Many players choose this format for its traditional feel, simplicity and direct feedback through the shot.

The trade-off is transport and storage, as it requires a full-length 1 piece cue case rather than a shorter jointed case.
