Just measured the crown. It's only 12mm high. :/ --- which would leave me only 2mm on top/bottom around the 8mm recessed hole in the back. Seems kinda sketchy.

Also... thanks for bringing up the spacers. I would definitely need a bunch to clear the cup.

Meh. Too much work. I'll just use my beater fork for now. --- and order a nice tange one for the future.

Thanks for all the help. ✌️
