ri702bill 7,362 #5 Posted April 29, 2023 If you've got a "roaster" or other Round Hood, what Eric showed is probably your only option. Or, nothing at all, the 1 gallon tank of fuel does not last that long !! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,245 #6 Posted April 29, 2023 How about one of those insulated rubber can holders and glue a magnet to the bottom. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After all you would certainly want to empty it by the time the lawn was finished. Waste not, want not 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,245 #9 Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) You could think like Red & Green and duct tape a styrofoam cooler to the hood. After a 6 pack or two you won't care what the yard looks like. Remember at a few too many my neighbor found out that Wheel Horses can climb trees. He only had one tree in the yard.

OldWorkHorse 2,992 #13 Posted April 29, 2023 I got me a couple of these magnetic ones, stick anywhere on tractor. One arm gets tired doing all the drinking? Switch it to the other side, make the other arm do all the work. Works good for me. But I have commitment issues so I like not having to mount it permanently 5 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I have commitment issues so I like not having to mount it permanently Thx I made one similar to this .With a magnet.I thought it was strong enough . If vibrated off and I promptly mowed over it..beverage and all. 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheelhorse#1 1,446 #15 Posted April 30, 2023 I thought about one of these too. 2 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 26,608 #16 Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) If you happen to have D-series there is room for 2 drink holders. Add lights in case you are mowing after dark. Edited April 30, 2023 by Achto 3 6 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you are going to find a implement for it to justify said cupholders... I can't believe you are talking cupholders without consulting the master... @stevasaurus Edited April 30, 2023 by WHX?? 3 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,982 #20 Posted April 30, 2023 Guys that don't drink their beer quickly will be disappointed. Kohlers are known for causing Beer to go flat in a hurry. ( Tecky's even more so if you can manage to get it going!) 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

( Tecky's even more so if you can manage to get it going!) Wait a minute. Are you guys talking about drinking beer? I thought this was about "hydration". 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 26,608 #22 Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) I once asked a friend of mine who has a big lawn, "How long does it take to mow your lawn?" His answer was "Usually about 6 beers" In Wisconsin talk that's about 2hrs. Edited April 30, 2023 by Achto 1 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I hear folks from Minnesota tell it, 6 beers in Wisconsin is like 45.minutes! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
