I purchased these from a member and was told these are Squatty Cups Version 2 in Church Bronze. Now that I have them, I can say they are not Squatty nor Bronze. I am wonder if anyone could help me identify these cups?
They appear and smell (yes smell) like copper, so I am confident in saying that would be the metal. But the beads are too low set to be squatty. they look more like the RNT2 Paul Fox cups. Any help would be greatly appreciated! http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/uploa......_pic.jpg Click here to view attached image.

The only way to tell is to measure the height and/or try to put a lacrosse ball into the cup. If the lacrosse ball sticks out about 1/4", it's a squatty.
Some lacrosse balls are larger than others. There is a 1/16" permissible variation in the diameter of lacrosse balls. You need one that is down at the lower end of the permissible range. The best diameter to use is 2.47". A genuine Paul Fox cup will accept one of these balls all the way. This includes the RnT II Paul Fox cups. Any larger and the ball will stick out about 1/16". In a Squatty cup, the lacrosse ball will protrude about 1.4", as I mentioned before. Sorry I didn't see this photo before.
