I think you're thinking of one like this one: Magic Bullet Blender.
Nope, I was doing it this way with HB blenders years before the Magic Bullet ever came out on the market.
This one is different because there are no plastic rings. Not sure you could put a glass jar on it because the blade needs to be inside the blender or food processor attachment.
Take the blade off the blender..then put it on the jar opening (blade facing down into the jar), then screw the large white plastic base ring (as shown in your picture, the one that fits on the blender base) on to the jar. All you're essentially doing is replacing the blender container (plastic or glass) with a dumb old standard mayo jar.
I just checked mine, and it is a 12 speed. If they changed the size of the opening on the 10 speed it wouldn't work, but I think all the HB blenders have standard size threaded openings. Will check it out at the store next time I go. Ha, I can just see it now..will have an empty pint mayo jar in my purse to see if it works on the 10 speed models.
BTW, I have little one cup containers it works with too. Years ago HB used to give/sell them to use for little things if you didn't want to use the big blender container. You can still buy them in some kitchen stores. Those tiny containers lead me to discover you could use any jar with that standard size openning.
The Magic Bullet Blender does look cool on TV, though! I've thought of going to the "As Seen On TV" store to see what it looks like in person. From what I could tell you only got 2 choices of sizes of containers, and it was just another gaget I'd need to find a place for ..LOL.
