Description

First, what is a Pythagorean Cup? In laymen's terms, it's a cup behaves normally until it's filled past a certain level, at which point it drains the entire contents out the bottom through a siphon tube.

For a more detailed explanation on its history and how it works, look at the wikipedia article on it, that provides a good summary.

Second, a Pythagorean Cup normally has a giveaway column in the middle of the cup, which contains the siphon tube. That's where this model is different.

I've created a cup that does the exact same thing, except the siphon tube is contained in the wall of the cup. I felt that the column rising through the center of the original design was somewhat distracting, and that the cup would be much cooler without the column.
