I have a Travel Mug. My 18-month grandson thinks I have a Stainless Steel sippy cup... I tell him real men drink from SS and not plastic. The mug is perfect height to rest on floor and wedge beneath the arm rest on the pilot’s side. In flight, sometimes I’ll just lay the mug on top of the flap handle between the seats. My flap handle is covered with shrink tubing to protect against scratches mainly from seat belt clasps...

Rock Climbing Chalk Bag
I use a rock climbing chalk bag. It is a vertically oriented pouch that sits on the floor directly in front of the stick. It comes with a strap that I attached some Velcro. The Velcro strap then fastens underneath the seat to hold it in place. I have one in front of each seat on my 7. It's deep enough that you can throw your car keys in, your cell phone, and still have room for a portable mug or bottle.

That panel looks great. Like the curved 3D instead of normal flat panel. Curious who supplies it?
Thanks! This is an Aerosport Products item. They are an advertiser here so I think I can add a link.

They did the center console where the throttle is located, but I think i got a prototype.
During the build of my -7, I put in a few nut plates in strategic locations to allow for mounting of things like iPads, phones, and cup holders.
I ended up using these folding ones for boats -- available on amazon for a few bucks.
