A drink near an MFT bench: give it a separate place
Keep a drink out of the cutting, clamping and perforated work area.
Choose a separate clean surface
A multifunction workbench is a work surface. Its holes, clamps, guide rail and moving stock make it a poor default drink spot. A separate break table keeps the beverage out of the active work envelope.
Think beyond tipping
A wider base does not stop dust entering an open drink or protect it from finishes and solvents. Move the beverage away from those activities; do not treat the holder as a contamination barrier.
Keep the full footprint supported
If using Steadi at a clean break table, leave a continuous 5.2-inch support area. Do not bridge bench holes, hang the edge over a table, or wedge the holder among clamps.
After a spill
Stop and follow the relevant equipment and material care instructions. Steadi cannot protect a worktop or powered equipment from liquid. Hand wash the holder separately and allow it to dry.
