About this model
This is a simple but effective drinks holder using gimbals. It will fit a standard 330ml can or anything of the same or smaller diameter. It will print in place in without supports I have designed it to fit my tablet holder ( but I plan to use the same fitting to create other mounts. A sparse infill also provides good insulation. Update: I've now uploaded the grouped model which makes things much easier to align Update 2 : I have created the first two alternative mounts. One is a clip-on one to fit a garden chair (obviously you'd have to have precisely the same ones I have). The second is a clamp on one which screws to the arm of a chair. Both have printed successfully. You may prefer to use ABS for these for the extra strength/durability
