So you buy the tubes and cones after getting the Form 1, drill and clip(?) the cones, assemble, and that's it?
I think you will need the tube and end caps before filing because you will have to list dimensions on paperwork.

So here are a few different types of cups and cones, just what I have on hand, there are lots more out there. Different designs, skirt lengths, angles, tip diameter, materials, some are heat treated, etc...

I think the only group buy going on right now is for diffusion walls... Unless you're looking at a different site... I pretty much stick to https://form1suppressor.boards.net/

Unless you mean the cups from Straight Six Tactical, in which case if you look at my picture above, the cup on the far left is one of those. 0.75" skirt is nice to have some room to trim or if it's going to be at the front of the suppressor and you do staggered spacing you can go without a spacer.

Slide over to "silencer student" on youtube for interesting videos.
Especially the 8" Dino can video, very quiet even with supersonics.

I logged onto that form 1 site yesterday. Now where can I get a copy of Suppressors For Dummies ? I own 8 but , don't know squat about building one. I have a mill and I can run a lathe ( I'm looking for a lathe) so I'm interested in building a few.
I have two lathes at the house......
