I play with this a few minutes at a time and ultimately there is a simpler way than making exact fitted rings. You do need a lathe.
Use a piece of pipe or pipe connecter that fits the size or a somewhat larger larger within reason. Turn to a 1/8" wall thickness . Cut a gap until the piece fits into the cup. The material will make an acceptable ring even though in an open condition it is a bit more of a "C" than a ring. The material is springy enough to fit .
