DRINK HOLDER

[LARRY BALL]

SOMEONE,SOMEWHERE, HAD A DRINK HOLDER MOUNTED TO THE STEERING COLUMN OF A CUB. MY LOWBOY, "LOCO" SURE WOULD LOOK NICE WITH ONE ON HIM. WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE ONE WHILE MOWING ON THOSE HOT TEXAS DAYS

SOMEDAYS I GET BRAINSTORMS SOMEDAYS JUST CLOUDS

Larry, you must be referring to the drink holder / rear-view mirror / cookie basket (according to my grandson Mikey) that Rick Prentice (billieandmilly) makes. Perhaps he still has a picture of it around somewhere.

on sunday morning during our spring show, i found that i had coverage in the membership booth, thereby freeing me up to do something else. the W6 was sitting there with the hay wagon hitched on the back and needed an operator. before i knew it, it was 2PM and i driven around nearly 6 hours shuttling people around the grounds.

but what got me to this post was ..... i discovered that the W6 needs a cupholder too sure was fun, though

Larry:

I made mine on the cheap... I had a few of the $1.99 Aluminium bottle holders for bicycles.. and mounted that up to the Steering Wheel Support.. works good.. at least for bottles... not so hot for coffee unless it is in one of them nice travel mugs....

YA!! THAT'S IT A DRINK HOLDER AND A PLACE FOR A FREON HORN. BUT WHAT ROLE DOES THE TUBE OF PRINGLES PLAY? NOW, IF I JUST HAD A "KA-ZOO" ME AND "LOCO" LOBOY COULD RUN-OFF AND JOIN THE CIRCUS
I'M BEGINNING TO WORRY ABOUT SOME OF YOU GUYS
I GOTTA GET MY HANDS ON ONE OF THOSE DRINK HOLDERS

Hi Larry. I have all the material for more, but right now I have my house up for sale .My house is 4 times bigger than needed and the shop is 10 times smaller I'm tired of tripping over everything in my garage/shop. I'm limited to only one, possibly two projects at a time, and it's a pain to try and change everything when someone needs say, a step or mirror. My plans are to buy some land and build my dream barn/shop and have several things set-up at once and organized. So, everything is shut down right now. I'm hoping someone doesn't buy it and set-up closing on the days of Cubfest . Thanks, Rick

Thats what I did Rick I bought the land built a 35X65 Strat-O-Span building had the floor poured after the posts were set got two10X10 overhead doors. (That was a mistake should have gotten rollups! ) finished it out added in a 10X16 office inside for the computer, desk, and all of my collectibles. and put the farm up for sale. Now that I will be closing soon on half of the farm and the rest next year my new great big shop doesn't look so big!! So now its either add on already or just add a regular rock floor pole barn to this one to hold equiptment. My long winded comment is, give it some long thought on how big you make your shop. The other thing is I can always live in a camper and be perfectly happy with a nice size shop out back!!!! The wife thought it was to store our stuff and set up my business but I was trying to think long term posibilities of what I might be doing or making or working on. You will not regret haveing the shop first and house second. My advice look at all the tools and equiptment and things you have to put up everytime you use them and have to look for everytime you need them. I did a scheme on laying out my stuff, I just didn't figure in aquireing more equiptment after the move and all the stuff I really had setting in the 9 barns I have here I certianly should have gave it more thought.......Bill

Boy, I certainly know what you mean about the barn not being big enough. I built a 32 X 60 and thought it was huge but I filled it up before I finished it completely. wish I had made it twice as big.
