Need to use your laptop in your car? Don't purchase a pricey laptop stand for the passenger seat or shell out for a dashboard mount. With some creative DIY-action you can turn your cup holder into a laptop stand.
Mike Davis needed a way to use his laptop in his truck and have a nice stationary platform to put it on. Unfortunately commercial models ran upwards of $300. After scoping out the cab of his truck and doing some brainstorming he realized he could build his own stand and use the center console cup holder as a base.
With $30 worth of parts—mostly pvc pipes, fittings, and a sheet of plywood—and a single afternoon of work he had a laptop stand for his truck that holds his laptop so well it doesn't budge even when swinging the truck around corners.
Check out the full build guide below to see step by step photos and additional information. Have a unique in-car DIY hack like Mike's laptop stand? Let's hear about it in the comments.
