The suction cup we had prototyped was made out of a circlular peice of aluminum with a groove in the bottom where a latex O-ring fit. It worked pretty well...untill we stratched up the surface a bit. Still, it wasn't very much for the resources it would use (like 2 of our cylinders) If anyone can make it hold and stay...that's where my money is going. Ohh...and that suction cup sticks to faces...not stomachs. Not that I know this personally or anything.
