3D printed plastic is basically a nylon material. There are other materials that can be ordered, but typically they get a bit pricey. Also, the nylon material will need to be sealed. Havent seen any printed drip cups, but if you have specs, I could take a crack at CADing it up for you.

that would be great!
This is what I'm using not and just cutting it down.
Sharkbite Pex adapter, 1/2in. x 1/2in. UC600LFA

sorry for the crappy drawing but the best I could do. All measurements where with a crappy ruler but I hope you get the jist. what would you seal the nylon with or could something like delrin (think I spelled that right) be used

How would the nylon stand up to heat? What would you seal it with?

Ok. My 510 CAD model is a bit different than your 510. If the diameter of your 510 is 7 mm just under the top lip, then the last picture I posted should work based on the dimensions you posted earlier. If not let me know what it is.

I can either send you a file for you to upload to shapeways or I can just send you a link to get the part.

I got about 350 thouw so if I remember you should be just about dead on. With it being plastic I can always open it up a bit.

Ok...sounds good, but 350 thou is ~8.9 mm.

Here is the .7mm part in STL. Just sign up to shapeways and upload, they will give you print material options etc....

Here is a second file that has the part with a 350 thou hole (8.89mm)
