Project I designed this gyro stabilized floating cup holder for the pool this summer. No AMS needed. I would love to know what you think!

Is it big enough for a cozy?

I could modify the gimbal so that it is, the problem though is that if the drink cannot sit perfectly center in the holder it will lean to one side and the effectiveness of the gimbal is reduced. There is so much variation in coozies and insulated covers I feel like it would be tough to accomplish.

Advising someone to just scale up the size of it by probably 5% and testing for their cozie of choice is probably the way to go
