Chop Cup Decision - Assistance Needed

[JustinTheMediocre]

So I learned a great chop cup routine that I really want to perform. I can spend a lot if I really need to, but are there any cheap but good quality chop cups on the market? I want one that can load a tennis ball or baseball. If I do not get any recommendations of better ones, I will likely choose from one of these two:

https://www.vanishingincmagic.com/magic/close-up-magic/exotic-wooden-chop-cup/

Also, is Premium Magic a good source for a chop cup? Their prices look almost too reasonable....

I have a Rings and Things combo cups set and they are beautiful. Donnie does very nice work. If you like how the Don Alan cup looks, you won't be disappointed by the quality. The cup from Vanishing also looks really nice. I get a lot of books from there and they are great to deal with. I've never heard of Premium Magic, and from the look of the website, I'd be concerned.

One other thought. I know someone that makes a chop cup out of a Starbucks mug. PM me if you want details.

I've seen these first hand and they are outstanding as well.

Don't go premium magic, got their aluminum cup and the magnet is to weak to work confidently with, for the price its ok for practice and to mess around with but not for performing imo
