I wanted to add the Laptop Saver to another workplace, so here it is.

My Husky muscle rack is similar to this one from Home Depot. The keyholes are spaced 1.5" apart, and the measurements I took are shown in one of the pictures. After tracing the original clamp profile I added 3 tabs to fit in the keyholes. It was a bit of a tight fit but it feels very sturdy. I'm pretty happy with this and have a cup on each end of my table.

I tried making the design parametric in case things didn't turn out right. It's possible to modify it if your keyholes are different, but I'm a novice to CAD and it's probably a bit messy :) I've also included my rack model. In the future I might make the adapter into a full L shape to match the rack's corner and give it more rigidity. 

 

I would recommend cutting the model to right above the first keyhole, print it ,and test if it fits in your keyholes as well as the slots for the cup.

My adapters are printed with Flashforge ASA, 0.2/0.4mm layer height/nozzle on X1C. Needs supports for the tabs. 

Hope it works well for you and saves you from spills!

Modified the clamp adapter to slot in the keyholes on my Husky Muscle Rack. I traced the profile of the slot for the cup holder and added 3 tabs.
