Cheap drink holder!

[SpartanBass]

for those looking for a simple tool/drink holder:


I have been looking for a tool/drink holder for the front deck and have not found one I liked or was worth a damn. I went to my local Tractor Supply and found 4 car cup holders for $2.99. I cut the end off one and strapped it to my front seat post with a zip tie. I also strapped my plier holders the same way. Now I don't need to look for the pliers or for  a place to set my drink while up front and I won't knock my drink over anymore.  Here is a pic. It was cheap, easy to make and is very convenient

That works, great way to get what you need and not spend a pile of money

One more tip, Trim the ends of the zip ties as close as you can.  Those things will slice you up if you bump your hand aginst one.  Jim

Yes they will!

This is a good idea. Might have to borrow it! For my drinks!

I use those same types of cup holders only after removing the hook portion, I put a single screw through the bottom into the carpet near the front depth finder.

After you snip em close,  put a lighter to it and that will round off the sharp edges.

Ahh, you meant "cheap" i.e. low cost drink holder!  I thought you meant a "cheap drink" holder.  I don't cotton to cheap drinks....

Brilliant and I love the line organized on the pegboard on the wall. You my friend have a 5S mentality

Thats a neat idea!

Thanks for the tip I will try that once I put a pedestal up front.

I like it as I'm "cheap" by nature.
