Adding cupholders to R1T?

For anyone who finds a 3d print design file but doesn't know someone with a printer, maybe check your local library. Mine has a "maker space" which includes a 3d printer along with things like a green screen, cameras, cricut, sewing machine, etc.

Do you have to wait there for the 30 hours it will take to print?

LOL bring your meals, a sleeping bag, and a change of clothes!

I think they said something about allowing things to print overnight as long as you get it started a half hour before they close, then they'll notify you when it's done. The downside is that they charge $1 per hour of printing time, so if you have a large design with 100% fill, it will cost more than just buying something online. But, its a nice option in the event you want/need something unique.

I use this for my 40oz hydroflask. Cupholders only used for smaller beverages.

We have this one too. Works perfect for us since we usually have 2 cups and 2 water bottles. Water bottles fit perfectly. You can even put an empty or part empty Yeti cup in one of the cubes. We also use one of the cubes as a garbage.

Ordered this one from Amazon. It's half the price of the one from etrailer.com and appears to be a newer design. It's slightly wider by 0.5" so I'm not certain it will fit, but at $20 (and easy returns) it's worth a try.

I found one on Amazon that works with a small modification.

How big a water bottle will fit on this? 3.25" diameter yeti?

I'll have something for sale this week.

I printed this up last week. The diameter accommodates my hydroflask fairly tightly and the boss's yeti a little less so. This version is held with double sided tape but I'm printing another version this weekend with recesses in the bottom for magnets on each corner. I plan to put stick metal discs to the bottom of the console mat to mate up to the magnets on the cupholder and do away with the double sided tape. The picture shows the right cupholder with a drop in reducer I printed so I can also use it for bike water bottles. Happy to share the stl file if anyone wants it.

Great idea! When you finish your next round of files with the magnet slot, I'd love the STL file.

I used these magnets, they are slightly deeper than the pocket in the bottom of the cup holder:

A 32 oz. hydroflask fits perfectly and a 32 oz. Yeti is a little loose. The magnets hold fairly well but I haven't driven with the yeti and hydroflask inserted yet. They could let loose in a hard braking situation but normal driving shouldn't be a problem. Let me know if you're interested in having the freecad file and I can post it as well.

here you go. did have to trim the plastic in the two front corners to get it to drop in flush. You cannot see it when it is in place. I do have to pull it out to access the camp speaker.

After a few months of use are you still happy with this? Looks perfect but hesitant the cupholder will be deep enough to handle cornering with a bottle in it. Great find and demo either way, thanks!

here's my temporary solve...

Some Amazon cup holders, some ABS plastic cut to fit and some velcro tape. Holders are adjustable so they'll take large and small bottles.

Everything seems to be holding well. I'd probably opt for a taller cup holder, but haven't had any issues around corners or driving to/from the mountains.

This is awesome! You should share this on Thingiverse. I posted it here but happy to take it down if you want to do the honors (I attrib'd it to you anyway)

I tried to share it on thingiverse but had issues with my account so just threw it on my google drive to make it available. Thanks for posting it there and now that it's freely available there I'll remove it from google drive and edit my previous post.
