No I haven't and don't intend to………….

I am simply looking for a method of holding a cup on a wheelchair.

In almost three months you have found nothing, although there are millions of wheelchair users in the world and many of them were definitely interested in this question. Think about why this is so. Maybe because such a cup holder does more harm than good?

Really why is that - please explain to a simple person

Why do you claim that a wheelchair cup holder does more harm than good?

Because inevitably spilled tea or coffee is dangerous due to burns, for example. Your wheelchair is primitive today and is not gyro-stabilized.

It is safer to prepare hot drinks directly in the room where you are going to drink them.

So now - you are saying that I am not allowed to make my cup of tea in the kitchen - and should move the kettle and fridge (milk) to the living room (and even get a cold tap plumbed in) - and make my hourly cup of scalding tea in the living room ?

Well, I plan to defy this silly advice and make my tea in the kitchen and move my cup of scalding tea to the living room and drink it there !!

Does your advice also apply to my daily Boulevardier or am I allowed to bring that in to the living room to gulp down ?
