Don't know if this will help, but if you go to Grainger and search for "Round Medium Hard Buna N O-Ring, 29.0mm I.D., 34mmO.D., 10PK" you'll find the o-ring that fits on the base of a feldgrind and keeps the cup securely in place.

If your hausgrind is the same width as a feldgrind it will probably fit.

Thanks for the suggestion, but from what I've read just looking it up now the Feldgrind is a slightly smaller diameter than the Hausgrind.

In the interests of not further derailing the thread (sorry), I'm still waiting for the Niche. My only reservation is that if it's so great at this price point, why hasn't another established grinder company done it already?

Although tempting, I'm going to let others test out the new tech.

The last k10 in the buy/sell here was not actually still for sale. Besides for patiently waiting for the next used K10 to show up. Any other suggestions?

I am interested in HG 1 with a motor. Who can make this?

Where is this kit being offered? Nevermind, I found it.
