Topic: Cupholders for halfdoors. Chunky Campbells soup! (PICS)

[Yota Up]

I'm looking around the house for something to use, right...
So I end up having some soup.  Light bulb turns on.

[Yota Up [OP]]

Ate the soup, removed the label, cleaned it up.

Yup.  That'll do.  That'll do just fine.

[Yota Up [OP]]

Off to the truck!  Got inside, got comfy.  Set my arm down and noticed exactly where the most comfortable position was for it to fall to grab the drink.

Set down the can and traced it out.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm  

[Yota Up [OP]]

Chopped the top part of the can off.
Cut slices into it diagonally.

Folded the slices to make a nice savage lip.

Hacked a hole out of that door like a drunk boy scout with a dull knife!
But - she fit.  Sweet.

So there it is, boys.  Now, before I go any further - quick question:

Should I weld or use bondo for the final touch?

[Duffil]

stitch it up with the smoke wrench.

[Yota Up [OP]]

It's funny.  My wife says this all the time:  "Why is it that boys always prefer to do things where sparks and fire and crazy stuff is involved, rather than a gentle nice safe way?"

Ha ha!  Because we are men, baby!


Disclaimer:  Please do not take your eyes off your work like I did here for the pic.  You could loose a finger.  But then again, if you're a man, you'll take it and not whimper.

I thought I was the only one to ziptie the wrench to the grinder!
