Cup Holder

[nitroxn]

4" PVC drain pipe with 1.5 x 1/8 aluminum flat bar bottom. Wont fill up if rained on also works with big cups or coozies.

nitroxn, Great idea. How did you mount it on you tractor?

Looks good. I mounted a double gymbal holder designed for a boat on my IH right fender. Works great. I had glued rubber magnetic strips on the bottom of a snuggie to stick to the hood but jarring sometimes slopped beverage out on the hood /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Mounted it or the back side of the tower brace on my FEL. Its a little out of reach, but way better than going back to house or truck for a drink.

Nice work..... Although you are a bit late /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif. I finally gave up trying to figure out where to mount a cup holder last week and ordered the magnetic one. If you had only posted this a week earlier! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Seriously, all your mods look real nice. Keep your ideas coming.

Thanks,
Greg

I have also made a cooler bracket that fits on the rear weight bracket on my tractor. When I go out I usually stay all day, take some beenee weenies, etc to warm up on the engine.

Hey! a new idea. A tractor manifold cookbook, whatcha think ?
Well maybe not, but many people I know have been warming food on their tractor engines for many years.

As long as you dont bring fish for lunch the manifold thing would be ok. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Can't remember where, but i saw a picture that showed the hood up on car and the owner had rigged up a cooker that was plumbed into the exhaust so that the hott exhaust gasses circulated around a chamber that had a cooking pot in it. They cooked all kinds of things in it.


Don't know about fish though /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That is a great idea! I can duplicate that on my 7610 no problem. I even have some white 4" drain pipe available.

Manifold cooking made the rounds in the car hobby several years ago. The consensus was that hot dogs wrapped in foil were nicely warmed in/on the top valley of the cylinder heads & intake manifold of V8 engines. Laying 'em on the exhaust manifold scorched the breads if left there very long. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif The top of the engine stayed nice and warm but doesn't scorch what ever you're cooking. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Now, to check where a hot dog could lay on the Kubota engine top without falling off. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Pardon my ignorance, but what's a 'beenee weenie'??
