Simple as can(no pun intended!) be, needed a drink holder to keep my Pepsi off the desk, out of harms way, and un-spillable.   Remodeled bigger for Powerade bottles.   Several options for design style in the SCAD model, barrel bands, rivets, mounting holes etc.  

Designed to print in vase mode, single 0.8mm, or even 0.7mm wall. (yes, on a 0.4mm nozzle!).  I have uploaded a couple sizes, and with the Large size, with and without Structure cuts in the outer perimiter. (a trick from Ben Eady on YouTube, he calls it negative volume printing, to add inner structure to vase mode prints.) 

Can be rendered and exported from OpenScad as a regular print as well. 

I have about 4 of them around now, even have one with a top cap to reduce the dia for smaller drinks sliding around, and a wider back, thats mounted in my truck.  A buddy has a couple mounted in a old RV that has 70s cup holders(dinky even for 12oz cans!).  All of mine are in PLA, I find PETG too flimsy in general for structural prints. PLA is fine here even in cars in the heat. But YMMV, use at your own risk etc, etc.. 

 

I put a center hole in them for drainage if ever needed, and reduced print time. I also use one of the dual size can strainers from https://www.printables.com/model/355041-can-strainers as an inserted bottom. scale in diameter, but not height,  simply drop in, works great!
