PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION ABOUT MEASURING YOUR PVC PIPE AND SEE THE PHOTO IN THE LISTING PHOTOS!!! Message us if there is any question about your pipe size so we can assure that you order to proper size! If you have an AMAZON turner, you will likely need a CPVC chuck. PLEASE see the listing photos to determine what kind of turner arm you have. We are not responsible if you purchase the wrong size for your actual turner. NOTE: If you measure your pipe and it shows that it is ¾" wide, that does NOT mean that you have a ¾" SCH40 PVC pipe. PLEASE read the instructions and see the photos included with the listing in order to ensure that you are ordering the correct size. We will no longer be exchanging or resending, at our expense, orders that are mis-measured! Im sorry that we have to put this disclaimer in here but we have taken the time to be sure that we are giving all the tools on how to measure the correct way and ask that you message if you are at all questioning your size so that we can assist you in getting the correct size you need. We have lost a lot of $$ in having to resend out, at our expense, new chucks because they were mis-measured by the purchaser. In the event that someone messages us and wants an exchange for a different size, we will gladly exchange, however, the return shipping and new shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer. We will set up a new listing for $8 for exchange to and from shipping and once paid and the old chuck is returned, we will send out a new one of the size you're exchanging. I hope that everyone can understand our decision regarding this.

3D Printed Cup Chuck for 20oz Spray Bottle Tumbler ~ Tumbler Turner Attachment ~ Adapter for easy turning ~ Epoxy leveling ~ The Original PENPAL - CUP and/or Spray Bottle are NOT INCLUDED.

This chuck holds the 20oz spray bottles shown in the photos above. It should also fit just about any "normal" spray bottle that has the treads on the bottle. We have not tested this on anything but the spray bottles shown above but they are just standard bottles.

We got it from Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3ClhTQE (affiliate link)

You may want to consider the adjustable arm support if your turner struggles with heavy tumblers, as the large bullet is a bit heavy. You can see it here on our single turner (white support), and it rotates well with no strain. You can find it in our shop here:

MEASUREMENTS:

Please check to make sure you know what size pipe arm you have. The measurement of arm usually is printed on the pipe itself. When in doubt, send us a pic of the arm you have with a tape measure showing the circumference of end.

These joints are intended to be permanently glued in place. If you need a different hub size, please message for a custom order.

The dowel holes are intended for use with 5/16" dowels. Not all dowels are created equal. In the case where your dowels or pencils are fitting too loose, wrap a layer of painters or electrical tape around the end of it and it will fix the issue! **Dowels and/or Pencils are not included**

PLEASE see the photo that shows how to measure your PVC pipe so that you are sure to order the correct size for your particular size pipe. The tumblers that are coming from Amazon or the craft stores sometimes have a smaller than the ½" pipe size, so be sure to measure and IF you have one that needs to be smaller than the ½" then message us with a pic of the diameter of your pipe so we can be sure to send you the correct size.

When in doubt, please dont hesitate to send us a message so that we can make your purchase as smooth as possible!


A LITTLE BACKGROUND STORY:

The Original "PenPal" cup chuck was designed by my Autistic son Christopher. I wasnt going to get on the Gel Pen Wagon but then I changed my mind. After I had him design a cup chuck for one of my more challenging cup sizes, I had a thought of making a cup chuck that would fit the dowels that we put the pens on. I explained to him what I wanted and gave him one of the dowel rods to use with his calipers to measure. He is amazing with 3d print design and he had it designed and on the printer within an hour! After posting a pic in a group that I was in, it went viral and I had so many messages and requests for one. We have finally caught up and even re-invested to grow his 3d Print Farm (see the photos of his set up)

I knew it was just a matter of time before the idea would take on its own life and other crafty engineers would be designing and selling their own. Thats ok, its a great idea! Just know that when you purchase one of these chucks from my store, all profits go to Christopher to assist him with growing his small business. He is high functioning, however, he is unable to work outside of the house at this time due to his limitations!

We are now having him engineer in his 3d printing software the different size chucks for all the HOGG cups that we own and he and his dad have engineered an "all-in-one" cup chuck that will actually fit almost EVERY standard cup that HOGG has to offer. Of course it will fit many other brands, like Ozark, Yeti and Marker Craft to name a few BUT we are using HOGG brand cups when engineering our chucks. He really enjoys the challenge and the prototyping of new things. It is helping him tremendously in the aspect of learning the craft and skills that will help him in his future. We aren't sure when he will be ready for college or continuing education, due to his limitations, but we are hopeful that with this knowledge he can either carve out his own path to small business ownership or will give him that extra boost when the time comes for him to enroll in college classes.

Thanks so much for looking and supporting a young entrepreneur!
