Just like to share a cupholder I made for my old troopy. Having put up with no holder for years I decided to make my own.

Cruisers are limited for space so this is my way round the problem.

Holder is made of clear acrylic bent over a former (piece of pipe) with portagas flame. The plastic cups that are fixed into the acrylic suit my drink containers, they are attached to the acrylic with sikaflex and the bottom of the holder is double thickness. Attachment to the Jesus bar is with self tappers down through the bottom of one of the cups. The holder has felt glued on under the leading edge to stop chaffing of the dash.

The holder has survived many thousands of K's now over some not to friendly roads and tracks.

Will attempt to insert link here, so see if it works http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc33/Rockape8/Tiles002.jpg

Gauges just fit, have to be really accurate when cutting the holes.

That's very cool, KevM ...........

Please advise how you do this [in simple terms!] ....... that is just the best way to illustrate a thread subject.

And you're right ............ "Nice holders by the way Rock Ape. "

Thanks

Doug,

I know that, it was just another way of showing it. At least Pedro has benefited from it.

He did, indeed ................

The STRESS INDICATOR shows two dolphins jumping:

MILD STRESS AND ANXIETY in you will show minor differences in the two animals.

HIGHER STRESS levels will show appreciably greater differences.

I wonder what everybody sees here ............ ????

Doug,

I wonder if David is going to fix it, by programing it to reduce to a size that fits when inserting the image.
