What's the thingiverse link again? Quite a number of these things on there. All 
messages with it have flushed from Yahoo's trash folder. Now my interest is 
piqued more and I want to see the models you're working with.

My version would be a bit more OOTB, to thin the base to add more flex to 
the bottom of this cup. But I'm still figuring out cura. The walls being 
flexed seems to translate to an up and down deformation of the bottom of 
this "cup" and a thinner bottom might reduce the strain on the sidewall 
junction where it usually breaks. Done and resliced. The current copy 
I'm about to kill is bridging the bolt holes.  There is nothing above 
them, so why?  Turned it off. Took 2 layers out of the bottom, I think. 
With cura, who knows for sure?  Anyway, its building. And about an hour 
and change faster.
