CUT Cup holder

( If I set it down by my feet sooner or later I always knock it over before I get a chance to drink. )

That's exactly why I had to put one on the BH. Spent more time cleaning up the spill (gets sticky) rather than making progress. Gerard

I found a cup holder made for boats called a Bar Bouy. I used an existing hole in my loader frame and installed it without drilling any new holes into my tractor/loader. Here's a pic cup holder

Blackjack I really like that swivel feature on your cup holder. With that one if you roll the tractor over you won't loose a drop of coffee in the process. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Be careful out there.......

Blackjack,
I have the same type of thing on the fender of my old IH 2444, works great.

For other uses ie Riding mower,etc, I just hot glued flexible magnetic strips to the bottom of soft foam huggies, works great on anything metal.

Sounds like a great idea with the magnetic strips. These days it hard to find much metal on the newer CUTs!

sure that would work, but not on a corona bottle! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I use silicone (see attachment). Gerard

For the corona bottles, I have a zip up huggy for bottles I have rigged the same way. Works good for all drinks, but I don't drink and tractor /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

This is behind the times /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Do a search for the "Chalkey Cup". There was major innovation here on TBN about 3 or 4 years ago. Mark, and HARV, and a few others engineered the most impressive cup to be placed on a tractor.

Here is a link to some pictures.
