    So those delicups at the website he mentioned were 2-3x more expensive compared to others even after adding in shipping. If this is going to be how I do things for now I still wanted to explore other options. So I tried a few local delicups I found, nothing fit and standard fitting besides the 4inch threaded coupling which are 7 bucks a piece...so yeah no. So I went with a different approach, bought the cheapest 8oz delicups I could find (I use 8 oz sized bowls currently for everything) cut a bunch of holders for them out of 4in pvc, 14 bucks a stick and I get over 50 out of a stick. Chucked em up in a lathe and bored out the extra needed to make em fit.

    Result is now I can get 1500 standard sized deli cups for 100 bucks shipped (cost per cup gets cheaper the more you buy) and spent 60 bucks on holders and a few hours cutting and boring. Now I'll see how they work out in practice.

    Without having access to a lathe, getting the ars cups were probably the best deal I saw, 4 inch couplings are less than 3 bucks, for anyone else looking.
