The cups are the easy part, you also have to have the anvils to make them work.
are you talking black powder percussion caps or primers for smokeless powder?

Black powder primers
Or centerfire primers?
Ive see people reusing old ones..
Ultrasoinc them
Pop the anvil out
Use a punch to make the cup flat agian
Put new priming compon in
Put he anvil back in
Let it dry and use it.
