I can't see stamping pyramids into the base working at all unless you do it Cathar style like the Storm with drilled cups and a pyramid pin in the middle instead of a round one. I just invision water getting trapped in the pyramid shaped cups and having to boil to get out.
Cathar has the best design I think as far as cups in the base.
Delrin is a plastic. Comes in black and white mainly. I have seen grey on e-bay.
