Description

The normal size has a 160mm internal (max roll size) and 32mm post diameter (max hole size). The medium and small sizes are 140mm and 114mm respectively. The jumbo version has a 180mm internal and 38mm post diameter to accommodate larger rolls.

After adding the towel roll with the end free, spinning the roll clockwise should automatically feed the end out of the side slot. Tear a sheet off by pulling from the bottom upward and towards the right edge of the slot.

Feel free to increase the holder's height. I chose 180mm high to fit my bed, and I don't think I would go much shorted, but I think taller wouldn't hurt.

Add three rubber pads or feet to help prevent sliding. I have a spot on my workbench paper towels live, so I just may attach it with some double-sided tape to create a semi-permanent home for a roll.

Sturdy and useful, but way to wide for German paper towel rolls. print at 80% on the X and Y axis and save some filament along the way.

@KenMills

Thank you for giving it a try and the feedback. If the 80% scaling doesn't quite work, I can create a smaller version for the diameter you need thanks!

@drewx2

Wow the difference between USA and Germany roll is staggering!

I really like the reel seat, it's also something to look at

Had to reduce size otherwise way to big for UK kitchen roll, but came out amazing!

This printed well and perfect. I added some letters at the bottom to customize it too.

Printed well, altough it might have been a tad bit smaller. At least I can buy larger rolls 😅

@KenMills

Thank you for the feedback and nice rating. We buy Costco paper towels which are quite large. Even still, someone requested a larger version ;) I will see about creating medium and small versions later this week. Thanks!
