Not "currently". That post of his was made in '06. Links are long dead. Doug

They are not rare, but are seldom found in pristine condition, primarily because the finish is very easy to damage.

Bill Wood New user Nova Scotia 98 Posts	Posted: Oct 30, 2015 02:24 pm 1 If you want to try working with a functional set before you invest in some real 'beauts' you can make your own set from three deconstructed "ring for service" type bells and drawer pulls from a hardware store. The bells unscrew very easily and already have the needed hole to attach the knob?
ZachDavenport Inner circle Last time I posted I had one less than 1196 Posts	Posted: Oct 30, 2015 03:30 pm 0 I actually ended up making a set from wooden knobs and coconut shells. I decided I don't really love the trick, so I'm not going to get a good set. Reality is a real killjoy.
ringmaster Inner circle Memphis, Down in Dixie 1974 Posts	Posted: Feb 4, 2021 03:17 am 1 Someone somewhere showed a routine using glass percolator tops. Finding three matching tops now would be a better trick than the Cups & Balls. Or maybe not. https://www.etsy.com/listing/947757781/5......e=all&ga One of the last living 10-in-one performers. I wanted to be in show business the worst way, and that was it.
Bill Palmer Eternal Order Only Jonathan Townsend has more than 24315 Posts	Posted: Feb 19, 2021 07:04 am 0 Those Fire King percolator tops are not suitable for use as Indian style cups. The configuration of the handle is wrong. It needs to be slightly dished so a ball can rest upon it.
