Cup holder
What does everyone use as a cup holder? I was wondering if there any 3-D printed ones out there

Re: Cup holder
If you look past the fan, you will notice that I use a simple old style cup holder hooked over the dash. We used to use this style of cup holders between the windows and the doors.

Re: Cup holder
I added some mahogany to match the dash to the metal cup holders you can buy through several of the suppliers. The wood might make it a little more friendly to bumping into as the metal is quite sharp on the edges.

Re: Cup holder
This one is slick! Hardly noticeable it looks like. I don’t really want a big bulky piece of plastic hanging off the dash..

Re: Cup holder
Of course you can always hold the cup between your legs.

Re: Cup holder
I have a molded plastic dual cup holder that sits on the floor against the front of the seat and is not fastened. It was approx. $15. and works great. It also has slots for things like napkins and whatever. What I like is it doesn't have to be mounted and is out of the way.
Google floor mounted cup holders. |

Re: Cup holder
If you’re into a little woodworking, I made these for my cars, a truck and a phaeton…also, I made a little epilept for both sides of the dash on the truck. Looks pretty good and dresses it up a bit….

Re: Cup holder
Be careful with the double wire style . If not properly attached to the dash rail, it can scratch the gas tank face.

Re: Cup holder
I used stainless steel folding marine cup holders. Works well for passengers having room to get in and out.

Re: Cup holder
I printed a couple of 3D designs, but didn't like any of them. I pretty much drive by myself, so I have a couple of the thick pressed cardboard ones they give you when you order fast food. I just store one under the passenger seat when not in use, and when in use, I leave just one corner sticking out from under the seat and then place the cup in the holder. I have yet to have one spill, I just don't order the 2,000 oz., belly-buster drink. for me, it's 20 oz., or under.
The Tudor has a little room under the seats and the holders from Carl's Jr. (west coast / Hardies - east coast) fit the best. Regards Bill |

Re: Cup holder
These work good and can really jazz up the car...but tend to get noisy and irritating if not maintained properly.
