coffee cup holder

[Billrog]

This is the third cup hold I've made for equipment and I think this one turned out the best. I used a ABS coupler.






After installing it I went up the mt. for a bucket of fire wood and it held and worked great with easy access. I've considered buying one in the past but never found any that weren't just flimsy plastic.

Good ole American ingenuity... Only thing I see wrong is if it happens to splash the fallout could land on your dash.

Great job and ingenuity! My NH has a round grab bar on the right side of the panel and I found a cup/mug holder that clamps onto the bar and works great. It is designed to fit a motorcycle handle bar and is sold on motorcycle accessories sites and I believe EBay.

Skip the rods on the bottom. It can't go through anyway. Handle stops it.

At last, a thread about something dear to my heart. Good job, Bill.

My 30 year old Ford tractor didn't have a cup holder when I bought it. First modification I completed.

Thank you all for the compliments . In the spring if I figure out a way to mount it on the fender that isn't Micky mouse I'll post a pick. For the cup it would work with no bottom but necessary for cans of refreshment. I'm going to check out the motor cycle accessory one it may work for my backhoe which has one in a very inconvenient place as well as the forklift.

These work pretty well. Swivels 2 ways so your drink always stays vertical.

That's a nice job! I just use an old can with a big enough diameter to hold my wrapped seltzer can. I drill holes in the bottom for drainage and tie wire it on. In my case, to the ROPS and fender grab rail.
