I bought a console from Build 5 Fabrication. Absolutely love it. Then I got to thinking...never a good thing...that I'd like some cup holders for the dinette area.
I was composing an email to Aaron for his source to buy some plastic cup holders when I thought to give Amazon a try. Success!!!
Amazon of course had multiple sizes. What to do, what to do? How about 2 different sizes? Sure, why not?
Anyway pictures > 1k words.
There is a small issue that will be resolved when I trim the upright dinette bracket.
I'm not sure why the one pic is laying down, tired I guess.

Nice job! I added 2 to my Seneca also, but I drilled the tabletop. My grandsons still think the dinette is the coolest bed in the unit so I needed them to be basically flush!
 
Thanks.
I thought about doing that. Saw some pics like that. Sure would've been easier. I'm not much on woodworking but am pleased w/ the result. AND I got to buy more tools!!! Hole saw blades and drum sander.
 
Very nice job on the cup holders! We had looked hi and low for coffee cup holders we could use while setting on the couch. I finally gave up and made these.

Very Nice. Anyone else made any cup holders, dinette or otherwise?

I originally mocked up mine like this. Thinking I was gonna mount the board underneath the factory one. Then one day it hit me, "Replace the OEM board with mine"!

3rd cup holder in center console.

Well since I had an extra cup holder and no plans for it, I decided to put it in an unused spot on the console. One 3 5/8" hole later and voila'.
Nothing like having 5 cup holders withing arm's reach. Keys, wallet, phone etc. will likely find a home there.
